Contributing to Excellence in Monticello Area SchoolsÂ
The Monticello Area Education Foundation is committed to benefiting students by supporting, enriching, and enhancing educational opportunities; and strengthening community involvement in the Monticello CUSD #25, by supporting educational initiatives for which other funding is not readily available.
Each year, the Monticello Area Education Foundation (MAEF) enriches our schools by providing teacher grants, funds for the after-school tutoring program, funds for the summer library, and scholarships for seniors. Last year, over $43,000 was given to local teachers and students to support the education of the children in this community.
Nineteen graduates of the class of 2023 and three returning students will be awarded a total of $44,500 in academic scholarships by the foundation.
MAEF awarded $15,000 in classroom grants to provide academic opportunities for students in District #25 from pre-kindergarten through high school.
Since its inception in 1999, the Monticello Area Education Foundation has awarded over $250,000 in grants to fund classroom projects and over $200,000 in scholarships to Monticello High School graduates.
