The Quinlan ISD Education Foundation is proud to announce the success of the 2018 Annual Golf Tournament. "This tournament is our largest fundraiser, and this year, we raised more money than ever before," said Dale Chreene, Foundation President. "The total will be over $11,000 once all of the dust settles and outstanding balances are collected. We can not be more thankful and proud as we intend to raise funding levels for academic and student enrichment grants in the next year or two from $22,500 per year to at least $25,000 per year," he explained.
Long-standing support in our community for the Quinlan Independent School District and it's partner, the Quinlan ISD Education Foundation, is very evident. Thank you to every person, business, golfer, and sponsor, for your support this year. The Foundation would not be successful each year without each person who volunteers, contributes money, or participates in events.
