San Manuel Band of Mission Indians and Public Education Foundation partner to distribute $25K in critical school supplies

The Public Education Foundation was proud to partner with The San Manuel Band of Mission Indians to distribute $25,000 in critical school supplies for students and teachers at Park and Paradise elementary schools.

Thanks to a generous donation from The San Manuel Band of Mission Indians, this special distribution helped provide backpacks of supplies and headphones for students at Park and Paradise elementary schools. The supplies were distributed to students participating in distance learning so they could better participate in class and tune out distractions at home. 

In addition, every teacher at Park and Paradise Elementary Schools received gift cards to the Teacher EXCHANGE to purchase classroom supplies. The Teacher EXCHANGE provides school supplies to teachers to reduce their out-of-pocket expenses. These supplies are then passed along to students who often can’t afford them.
