Polar Bear Foundation Athletic Fund Initiative
A new initiative has recently commenced to add targeted support to the athletic programs of our School District through the establishment of a PBF Athletic Fund. The Athletic Fund will provide donors the opportunity to direct their contributions into programs to enhance our athletic fields, equipment, supplies and opportunities. The first major project of the Athletic Fund is to raise money for the construction of a new turf field. Please click for additional information on the Turf Field Project and donation opportunities.

Since 2012, the Polar Bear Foundation has awarded $1,000 scholarships to two graduating seniors. A third scholarship was added this year, thanks to additional sponsorship support from Klein Dental Associates. Each applicant was asked to provide a 250+ word essay explaining why community service is important to them along with a history of their service activities. The PBF Selection Committee evaluated each application with consideration given to the content, form, grammar, neatness and presentation of the letter/essay. Congratulations and Best Wishes to these three students as they prepare for their college endeavors. For more information on the Polar Bear Foundation Scholarship, please click here.
