It's been a week... and we still can't get over the excitement (and noise level!) of gathering nearly 100 retired Appleton Area School District staff members together for lunch. 😁

Thank you to all who joined us to connect with former colleagues, learn more about the Foundation, and hear from grant recipients.

Special thanks to Lead Sponsor: Touchmark on West Prospect Retirement Community and Supporting Sponsor: Johnson Financial Group

Let's do it again next year! Want to make sure you're on the invitation list? Send us an email at [email protected]

This week we had the complete honor of hearing from three recent grant recipients. Appleton West High School's Rebecca Whittle, Einstein Middle School's Amy Hillesheim, and Stephen Foster Elementary Charter School's Ryan Vander Heiden and Emily George were joined by their students to share their stories with Appleton Area School District retirees and Foundation board members.

Thank you to the presenters! 💜Thank you to the retirees who listened and asked questions! 💜 Thank you to all our donors who make these amazing opportunities possible! 💜

As we celebrate National Volunteer Appreciation Month, we want to take a moment to recognize the dedicated individuals who serve on Appleton Education Foundation committees and board of directors.

AEF's success is built on the expertise and time these volunteers contribute. Their leadership and commitment behind the scenes are essential to our mission and to the educators and students we serve.

To our board and committee members: THANK YOU for your steady guidance and for giving your time to the AEF community.
