The Honor A Teacher Appeal raises funds to support our grant program.  At its core, Honor A Teacher acknowledges the importance of our teachers, paraprofessionals, staff, and administrators.  Their commitment and tireless efforts equip our students with knowledge and skills for tackling today’s challenges and tomorrows.  To all donors, thank you for your continued and sustained generosity.  Remember, it is never too late to Honor A Teacher who has made a difference.  Honor a Teacher donations are welcomed and appreciated year round.

Your gift will provide critical support and facilitate the work of the Beverly Education Foundation’s mission of enhancing and enriching public education during this challenging time.   “Please support this exceptional educational community.  Donate today to recognize an educator!”  

All exemplary educators may be honored including teachers, paraprofessionals, librarians, art, music, media, physical fitness and science specialists, coaches, guidance counselors, administrators, nurses, culinary services staff, bus drivers, support staff and custodians throughout our district who have made a positive difference in the life of Beverly students.

Monies raised go directly to fund annual grants, awarded each Spring, which carry out our mission: “… Beverly Education Foundation shall enhance and support improvements in the educational experience for Beverly Public School students as well as providing further professional development for its faculty. This financial support will facilitate greater learning opportunities for our children.”
