Our son has gotten very involved in a book series that the teachers of the After School Reading Enrichment program introduced to them. He loves it! He hated reading and books before this, and now we are going to the library weekly to find the next book in the series!”

I was proud to use my social media platform to introduce my followers to the specialized programs at Aloha and the mission-driven work at BEF. I'm so grateful for my followers' support of these amazing programs in honor of Radar. Radar may be retired, but we will keep serving.

I noticed students were interested in pushing themselves to try the next, more difficult build. Students who usually didn’t get to lead were more confident and excited that they could show other students how to make something or fix a problem.”

I am grateful to call theBeaverton EducationFoundation a trusted partner of the District. This past winter,BEF helped bring attention to a critical need—ensuring that no student goes hungry when school is out. Because of BEF’s leadership and outreach, more families were supported, and more community members were inspired to get involved.Thank you, BEF, for all that you do.
