Message from our President“The 2010-2011 year has been marked by manyaccomplishments that will have a lasting impact onour community. ” ~ Jim NoelIn our “Fund for Excellence” campaign video there is a statementfrom one of our York Foundation for Public Education, Inc.(YFPE, Inc.) board members that “the quality of a public schoolsystem is directly dependent on what the community puts intoit.” This 2010-2011 Annual Report is a testament to a communityof volunteers, organizations and businesses that answeredthe call for supporting the York County School Division,during very difficult economic times. We started the year witha financial commitment of $300,000 for our “Fund for Excellence”campaign and ended it with commitments for $652,254!We are well on the way of permanently endowing our work,to help insure that excellence is sustained in the York CountySchool Division. The formal “Fund for Excellence” campaignis over, however our efforts to build on this financial base willcontinue in earnest. I would like to thank Steve Staples, Ed.D.,our former superintendent, for serving as the co-chairman ofour “Fund for Excellence” campaign. Dr. Staples’ experienceand insight into the importance of the YFPE, Inc. to the schooldivision was critical in explaining our work to potential donors.The foundation’s 12th annual golf tournament also continuedour legacy of excellence. With the support of our major corporatesponsors, Walmart Distribution Center and Bay Electric Co.,Inc., many other donors and our faithful participants, we onceagain raised over $20,000. Additionally, we implemented theBrick Fundraising Program, a new fundraiser that to date hasnetted $4,200.The YFPE, Inc. had another busy year putting our funding togood use, supporting our schools, students, faculty and staff.We funded instructional and whole school improvement grantswith $13,914 as well as student resource development funds of$10,000. In addition, we funded $4,235 in teacher and paraeducatorscholarships along with our first YCSD employee scholarship,plus our annual Michael J. Tylavsky, Jr. Memorial Scholarshipfor $500. We added a new scholarship under our umbrellathis year, the Joseph H. Levi Memorial Scholarship, awarded toMegan Woodward, a Tabb High School student. We ended ouryear with $1,050 donated to our TowneBank Teacher of the Yearawards at each school level. Throughout the year, we continuedat monthly school board meetings honoring students forboth reciting the pledge of allegiance and receiving studentservice awards with Walmart gift certificates. Our YFPE, Inc.prize patrols and Celebration of Commitment and Excellencegave us an opportunity to honor and celebrate students, teachersand staff members throughout the year.Our foundation continued to grow in numbers, as we addedseveral new board members. In fact, we had to amend our bylawsin order to allow the board to grow to an all time high of32 members. The YFPE, Inc. also added a part time staff personduring the past year. Emily Dugan joined the YFPE, Inc. team asa Secretary II and has already done the work of ten.I would like to thank all of the YFPE, Inc. officers for agreeingto continue to serve in their current positions for anotherchallenging year: Myrtle Soles, Vice President, Kris Moore, Treasurerand Christina Head, Secretary. I would also like to thankour Superintendent, Eric Williams, Ed.D. and our school boardliaison Linda Meadows for their steadfast support and encouragement.Finally, I must acknowledge the hardest workingmember of our team, our liaison to the school division, PeggyMyatt. Peggy’s leadership, unflagging enthusiasm and extraeffort have been the backbone of our success.The 2010-2011 year has been marked by many accomplishmentsthat will have a lasting impact on our community. All ofour contributors both large and small should take great pride inknowing that they have helped insure a positive future for theYork County School Division.
