✨ Because of YOU, we made a difference. ✨

The FSD 157C Education Foundation is proud to share that during the 2025/2026 school year, we raised an incredible $137,953 thanks to our amazing donors, sponsors, community partners, staff, district families — and the support of events like our Casino Night fundraiser! 🎰💛

These funds helped fulfill 7 grants across the district, supporting opportunities and experiences for students and staff at:
• District Office
• Grand Prairie
• Chelsea
• Hickory Creek

From flexible seating and library programs to gym equipment and student support supplies, your generosity directly impacts our schools and students every single day.

Thank you for believing in our mission and helping us continue to support innovation, enrichment, and opportunity throughout FSD 157C! ✨
