Where the Money Goes
Mission
The mission of the District Five Foundation for Educational Excellence is to enhance the educational experiences of School District Five of Lexington and Richland Counties by building awareness and raising funds to support innovative programs, initiatives, and other needs of the students, teachers and staff.
Vision
Working hand in hand with the leadership of School District Five, the schools, and the community, we will support extraordinary learning opportunities that will enable School District Five to continue to be one of the best school districts in South Carolina and the nation and will prepare its students to thrive and contribute to our global society.
We raise money and invest it toward the unmet needs of students, teachers, and staff in five key areas:
Our board has deep roots in the community and school district.
Our school district is already so fantastic, my help can’t possibly be needed.
All school districts need assistance from their communities.
We’re blessed to live in a wonderful school district. But no matter how excellent we are, there will always be students, families and teachers that need our help. In fact, working together to help others is a hallmark of excellent school districts. Generations to come will flourish as a result of our efforts.
