The annual USD 232 Education Foundation ELEVATE! Breakfast on October 29, 2026, was a celebration as we looked back on a year of highs, looked forward to new opportunities, and raised a NET total of $63,582 to elevate student learning in USD 232.
Thank you to the generous businesses and donors in our community for supporting USD 232 and the Education Foundation. It is because of these donors that we were able to distribute $135,000 in grants and programs during the 2025–26 school year, allowing us to empower our teachers, inspire our students, and strengthen our schools.
Special thank you to KSHB 41's Mick Shaffer, De Soto and Mill Valley High School orchestra students, CTEC CAPS students, and Mill Creek Middle School flight and space students for being a part of our special morning!
Save the date for next year’s ELEVATE! Breakfast — Thursday, October 21, 2027.
