Dear Apex Community
After thoughtful discussion, the Board made the difficult and unanimous decision to close the Apex Public School Foundation.
Since our incorporation in 2018, APSF funded over $80,000 of teacher initiatives through the Teacher Grant Program and spotlighted over 300 extraordinary educators through a variety of recognition programs.
We are deeply grateful to all the donors, volunteers, educators, sponsors, partners, and community members who supported our mission over the years. This website serves as an archive to preserve the legacy of the grants and programs made possible through that support.
