The Johnson City Public Schools Foundation was chartered in 1989 to enrich public education in Johnson City. The independent, community-based foundation was established specifically to fund innovative programs and activities not provided in the system’s operating budget to enhance learning experiences for students and teachers in the Johnson City School System. As a non-profit organization, the Johnson City Public Schools Foundation works in partnership with the school system, to provide funds for projects, teacher grants, and manages donations for student scholarships.

Annual Fundraising Project
The SPELL-A-BRATION is a fun event held in April each year that raises funds for special projects, not funded by the regular school budget. Remember the annual spelling bee when you were in school? This event is less stressful than you remember, and much more fun with teams of 4 adults working together to correctly spell words on a white board. Teams come up with creative names and costumes. Your registration fee goes to a worthy cause, and you and your friends have a great evening of fun competition and laughter.
