Mission Statement

"It shall be the mission of the Jacksonville Public Schools Foundation to acquire, manage and distribute financial and other resources that shall be used for programs and projects which enhance or supplement Jacksonville School District #117 educational programs and provide enriched opportunities for students".

The Jacksonville Public Schools Foundation is a nonprofit, charitable organization led by a board of community and business leaders independent from the District #117 school board. Although the Foundation operates independently from the School District, the Foundation's sole purpose is to support the students and educators of District #117 public schools.

The Foundation works closely with District #117 to ensure it is meeting the needs of Jacksonsonville area students and teachers.  Please contact the Foundation  Executive Director, Leslie DeFrates, at the contact information noted above to find out ways to partner with the Foundation in order to make a difference in the personal and educational lives of future Crimson alumni.
