The Clay Education Foundation

Setting students up for success

From early literacy to college and career readiness, we invest in meaningful work to prepare students for success after high school. With the help of educators, parents, and community partners, we are maximizing student potential.

Supporting our educators

We support our educators by providing much-needed supplies and resources, as well as funding innovative learning programs in the classroom. This enables our teachers to boost student achievement at all grade levels.

Through the Apple Awards, we celebrate the ways teachers and school employees inspire students. At the Apple Awards ceremony, we select the Teacher of the Year, School-Related Employee of the Year, and Rookie Teacher of the Year.

The family factor

Parental involvement in every stage of a student’s journey is key to student success. It’s why we provide the tools families need to remain engaged and connected to their students’ school community.
