“I am honored to serve as chair for SKI Plano for the Plano ISD Education Foundation. Raising dollars for our Foundation helps benefit all students, teachers and schools in Plano ISD. ” said Leslie Newman, 2018 SKI Plano Chair. “As a mom of three young children who attend a Plano public school, I am proud to support our school community and feel blessed that my children are receiving an amazing educational experience.  The dollars raised through the SKI Plano fundraiser help create this same experience for thousands of children across our great city.”
More than 550 people attended SKI Plano 2017 and over $300,000 was raised to support academic programs that serve Plano ISD students and educators. Proceeds from SKI Plano are used to help all students in the Plano Independent School District achieve their full potential by providing financial support to educators and academic programs. These funds support priority projects for which tax dollars are not available including: Grants to Educators, student scholarships so all students can attend 5 th Grade Outdoor Science Camp, AVID, the Core Store and many other initiatives that inspire learning for all students in Plano ISD.
