The Petoskey Education Foundation(PEF) was established in 1989 to raise funds in a perpetuating manner so that special help could be provided to students attending the Public Schools of Petoskey; this includes scholarships, programs, and facility improvements which the school district could not otherwise afford. During the 2008-09 school year, 12 scholarships (totalling $16,900) were awarded to elementary, middle school, and high school students. In addition, $10,117 were awarded to faculty and students for mini-grants. The board of trustees would like to thank those people, organizations, and businesses which have helped in any way to make the work of PEF successful. Good schools and prosperous communities result from the cooperative effort of people working together! We look forward to greater success in the future as others learn of our efforts. By working for the benefit of our community’s youth, we invest in their future—and ours! Thank you for your kindness and support.
