Foundation Gift $56,000 For Teacher Training


The Foundation presented Principal
Dr. Linda Cartlidge with a check for
$56,000 on February 27, 2009. 		Suncoast has a national reputation for academic excellence, continually challenging students with an array of college level classes. To maintain this high standard of excellence teachers must undergo AP and IB training that will allow them to effectively present the course material. The Palm Beach County School District supports teacher training, but is unable to provide the funding at this time.

Dr. Cartlidge had determined that this training was vital and asked the Foundation for help. If the requested teacher training was not provided Suncoast High School's faculty would not have been able to deliver the instruction students needed to succeed. The benefit from this investment in teacher training impacted students immediately. The Suncoast High School Foundation is very proud and grateful to have donors who supported this important project, and met the goal of raising the required $56,000 in a difficult economic climate.
