Retired Educators Club Fund

The “ISD 742 Retired Educator’s Club” is an annual fundraising effort by LEAF.

On December 31, 2015, The LEAF ISD 742 Retired Educators Club surpassed the Legacy Fund requirement of $25,000! LEAF grants 5% of these funds to district academic, activities, arts and athletic programs annually. As of December 31, 2023, the fund has grown to $104,683!  This will allow LEAF to make $5,234 in academic and activities program grants in 2024!  The size of grants from the fund will continue to grow as the fund grows! Grants are made in the name of our retired educators, noting their fund within the LEAF endowment.

LEAF honors the fact that these educators have already helped make a difference in the lives of our students through their years of service in education. Now, they are supporting something that will have a guaranteed on-going impact on the educational opportunities students receive in District 742.

LEAF’s mission is to enrich educational opportunities beyond the support of public revenues. Private support through LEAF does not replace tax funding, and is a complementary strategy that can fund innovative programs, new technology, equipment to enhance student learning, and extracurricular activities.

The members of the ISD 742 RETIRED Educator’s Club are listed below. The list includes teachers as well as other support personnel who have served District 742. Many of those listed have donated in multiple years – Thank You! We thank our retired educators for showing that through their donation to LEAF, they are still making a difference for students – even in retirement!
