Join us to honor our local heroes of public education at the HOPE Awards. This year we will go virtual to honor Craig Price, a local attorney who spent nine years on the SBEF Board of Directors, and Nick Rail, the founder of Nick Rail Music who has quietly supported music education in our schools for the past 30 years.

Student Fund-a-Need supports our students’ most critical needs. We are currently fundraising to provide jackets for students who are doing in-person learning. Classroom windows and doors need to be left open to allow for airflow, and more learning activities will happen outdoors. Unfortunately, this means that classrooms are colder, and students are subject to the elements. Please give to ensure that students are warm and dry during their lessons.

Registration for our summer programs is now open! Explore music through band strings, or drums. Or build STEAM over the summer (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math, that is!) with robotics, art, and cooking! Registration is limited. Scholarships are available!
