The Morrisville Opportunity Educational Foundation needs YOU

Posted in News on Thursday, November 20th, 2008 at 2:36 pm by Courier Times reporter Manasee Wagh

After much work among its founding steering committee members, Morrisville new non-profit education foundation is finally taking wing.

The goal of the newly-named Morrisville Opportunity Educational Foundation is to form relationships with businesses and individuals who can financially help the district improve its education programs and infrastructure.

However, the committee still needs more interested participants to keep the promise of the organization alive, said Mark Coassolo at the school board’s recent Wednesday meeting.

“We’re looking for more people to be on the board of trustees,” he said. The young group is looking for corporate sponsorship, people in education, and any other interested parties to join the venture, Coassolo said.

If you are interested in joining the committee, being on the future board of trustees, or helping financially, or if you would like more information, contact Coassolo at 215-428-9657 or at markdc32@verizon.net.

Alternatively, call the district business office at 215-736-5933.

Middle Senior High School Receives Exxon Mobil Grant
The Morrisville Middle Senior High School receives $500 grant/donation from Exxon-Mobil corp. for service to community.

As the proprietor of the Exxon, located at 299 W. Trenton Avenue in Morrisville I am pleased to donate $500 through the Exxon “Educational Alliance Program” to Morrisville Middle/Senior High School.

According to an African proverb, “It takes a village to raise a child”. I believe the youth of our community need our support to realize their full potential so they can prosper and become functional and responsible adults. In these tough economic times it is imperative not to lose our philanthropic spirit and I hope other local businesses feel encouraged to support the endeavors of our educational institutions in shaping our future generations.

I selected Morrisville Middle/Senior High School because it is an excellent facility known for its innovative spirit and a commitment to the educational advancement of its students. It is an honor for me to donate these funds as a token of my gratitude and appreciation of the hard working community, which includes the parents of the students, teachers, and administrative staff at Morrisville Middle/Senior High School. I am thankful for their patronage and for making my family and I feel like members of a wonderful community. I look forward to serving everyone to the best of my abilities.

Priyanka Tewari
President
