Grants for Great Ideas
Grants for Great Ideas is an innovative approach to help supply LISD educators with resources to increase student performance and achievement. Some of the projects funded included technology to improve fluency in elementary and special education students, state-of-the art probes for high school science labs, forensic science tools, and projects to help struggling students understand math concepts.
Honor Roll
The Foundation created the LISD staff peernominated award to be given in the spring semester of the school year. The goal of the Honor Roll is to recognize the often unsung heroes of LISD, who approach their job with 100 percent commitment and effort and are true champions for education. Honorees are nominated by other LISD Staff members for the award.
Academic Excellence Banquet
Each May, the Foundation hosts the Academic Excellence Recognition Banquet honoring the top ten graduating seniors and the LISD teachers the students select as the most
influential in their educational careers. Cornerstone Club

The Cornerstone Club is a significant part of fundraising supporting the Lindale ISD Education Foundation. LISD’ s educators and
staff volunteer to give through payroll deductions or through one-time gifts by becoming members of The Cornerstone Club.
A scholarship fund for LHS theater students started by John and Peggy Kirton. The Kirton ' s put nearly $60,000 in the hands of the Lindale ISD Education Foundation to

The scholarship will total $4,000 each year. The remaining money has been donated to the foundation to award innovative grants for classroom projects.
