About EESF

 

Since its inception in 1996, the Essex Elementary School Foundation’s primary goal has been to create a significant endowment that can support the school’s strategic vision to engage all students in a rigorous and collaborative educational program. Each year, at least 5% of the EESF endowment is allocated for supplemental enrichment programs and projects proposed by the Essex Elementary School administration that would otherwise not be available through traditional funding by the school system and budget.

 

Board Members represent a cross section of the community.
Ex-Officio members include the Principal and a member of the Board of Education.
All operations of the foundation are provided by volunteers.
