The Difference

Why support the Foundation?

The Homewood City Schools Foundation is a not-for-profit organization that raises money to fund enhancements to the curriculum of all five Homewood schools; enhancements that touch every grade in all five schools.

The Action Team Project grants that we give each year feature collaboration between teachers to explore new, innovative ways of teaching, to implement new technology in the classroom and to further the professional development of our faculty and staff.

Still reeling from post-holiday disorientation? Let Zoe’s help with dinner

Posted on January 5, 2012 by mac

Not sure about you, but we’re still reorienting to normal life, post holidays. Very happy to see everyone back at school, but still not sure what day it is. Oh, yes, it’s the first Thursday of January, which can only mean one thing: Family Night Out at Zoe’s in SOHO.

Stop by (or pick up dinner to go) tonight and Zoe’s will donate 15% of sales (between 4-9 p.m.) to the Homewood City Schools Foundation. This has been a great partnership because it helps a great local business and all five Homewood schools at the same time. AND your entire family gets a fast, easy, fabulous dinner! See you there.
