Playing for a
Good Cause
Another successful ATPE
Foundation Golf Classic means
a win for public schools
The ATPE Foundation raised close to $70,000
in cash and in-kind donations during its ffth
annual golf tournament on October 17 at
Teravista Golf Club in Round Rock. This year's
tournament was the largest to date, with
more than 100 players hitting the links. One
hundred percent of the money raised at the
golf tournament goes toward the foundation's
mission of enhancing literacy, technology, and
educator recruitment and retention programs
in Texas public schools. Specifcally, the money
raised will fund the foundation's seven Beth
Ann Rogers Literacy Grants and two Technology
Grants, which will be given to educators and
public schools during the 2014-15 school year,
as well as $1,500 in scholarships for twenty
university education students.
This event was a success in large part because
of our generous sponsors. For a complete list
