The Alamo Heights School Foundation is here to provide steady support to our schools no matter what is happening at the State level. We know your commitment to our community, our children, and our future runs deep. Whether you have a child in Alamo Heights ISD right now or not, we are all part of creating a stronger community that supports one another, and we need your help now. We have big goals to fund the gap between what the State of Texas provides versus what our schools need to offer the premier public education that you expect.
Alamo Heights School Foundation believes that an excellent education begins and ends with great teachers. Here are some positions that the state of Texas deems non-essential that we know our students need:
- Librarians
- Nurses
- Gifted & Talented Teachers
- Campus Tech Coordinators
- Counselors
- Special Teachers (Art, Music, PE)
- Elective Teachers
- Foreign Languages
- Learning Labs
- AP and Pre-AP Classes
- Classes in Technology, Journalism, Debate, Statistics, Calculus, Biology II, Chemistry II, Creative Writing, Fine Arts
- Band, Choir, Orchestra and Drama Programs
- All Sports Programs
In Alamo Heights we believe that these teachers are vital to our students learning. Since the beginning of financial recapture in the 1990s over $660 MILLION of our property tax dollars have left our community. Today, we rely on the generosity of donors such as you to help us ensure that our students continue to have access to these VITAL TEACHERS.
