The Flagler County Education Foundation empowers teachers by rewarding creative, innovative projects through competitively awarded yearly grants. These projects enrich a student’s educational experience. Teachers are encouraged to apply projects that can help to increase teaching quality/improve classroom instruction and increase teachers’ knowledge and skills at their respective schools to enhance the district's “Classroom to Careers” focus area.
If you are a Flagler School public teacher be on the look out in your email in the fall!
Funding spent on education has been cut year after year across the U.S., and this program gives teachers an extra incentive to create learning projects that otherwise may never occur. Help support our efforts today.

In 2013 then Superintendent, Jacob Oliva, issued a challenge to all Flagler schools – create a flagship program as a center of excellence in one of the seven growth industries in the county. FCEF went to work, helping connect community resources and expertise to support these innovative learning environments. Flagler Schools is unique because of its Flagship Programs (Classroom to Careers), with at least one at each school. Focus areas are; agriculture, aerospace, green technology, health science engineering and computer science, marine research, law & justice, teaching & learning, finance, and business.
