SPARK as New Name The Prince
William County Public Schools Education Foundation is now known as SPARK, the
Education Foundation for Prince William County Public Schools. With a goal of
“Supporting Partnerships And Resources for Kids (SPARK),” the Foundation desired an updated look and feel
that not only represents the Foundation’s enthusiasm for inspiring students
and teachers, but also has a more energetic and youthful appearance that will
resonate better with students and the community – those stakeholders that the
Foundation works to serve. SPARK will
continue to operate in the same manner as the PWCS Education Foundation
always has, with a mission of engaging community partners to fund and promote
initiatives that enhance educational excellence. SPARK will continue to
support the Foundation’s current initiatives, including the Innovative Grants
program, the Dr. Edward L. Kelly Memorial Scholarship awards, and the ongoing
financial support of the “SchoolFusion” online communications tool for all 88
Division schools. “We are
excited about new ventures that are on the horizon and all the work that we
do to provide innovative solutions for our students’ and teachers’
educational needs,” says Sharon Henry, executive director of SPARK. “ As the
Foundation moves into this next era with a new name and a fresh image, we are
confident that everyone will continue to support our efforts and help us
ignite a SPARK in students and teachers to excel.” SPARK is the operating name of the
PWCS Education Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit charitable organization.
