09/05/2006: "Friday Deadline For Name In SJI Directory"

The Partnership Program deadline is approaching Friday, September 8. It's your chance to be in the school telephone directory for ALL grades, ALL year!

The San Juan Island Public Schools Foundation raises funds to enhance education in the classroom. Funds are used to purchase tools, from text books to skeletons, for the teachers that they otherwise would not receive from the District. Last year the Foundation raised over $50,000! The Foundation's "Partnership Program" is one way that local businesses can support our schools and local families can support our local businesses.

All partners will receive recognition at the entrance to each school along with a message that encourages school families to support these businesses. Also, partners will receive a thank you plus name on the library poster and/or special advertising space in the school directory, depending on your level of partnership. Partnerships range from $100-$5.000.

Please contact Paul Hopkins at 472-0908 or phopkins@rockisland.com or Paul LeBaron at 378-5858, if you have questions or to place your ad in this valuable marketing tool.
