Give a Gift to the Foundation
It is a gift that keeps on giving every day in our district as the BTCS Foundation seeks to support initiatives which will strengthen the learning environment of our schools and create a positive impact on student achievement. Educators are encouraged to apply for funding for worthwhile projects or programs which may not be covered through the normal budgetary process.
Give a Gift in Honor or in Memory of That Special Teacher
When considering the perfect gift in honor or in memory of that special teacher, consider making a donation in his or her name to the Bristol Tennessee City Schools Foundation. The BTCS Foundation will mail an acknowledgement of your gift to you and your honoree. Ensure you enter the details of your honoree so a letter may be sent. Upon submission of your donation, you will also receive an immediate email receipt, which will allow you to print a certificate to include in a card for your honoree.

Coding
Fourth grade teacher Catherine Lamie was a recent recipient of a BTCS Foundation grant for her students. As a result, all Haynesfield fourth grade students and students in her Ms. Lamie's enrichment classes will now learn the skill of coding.
According to Ms. Lamie, coding improves student problem solving and creative thinking ... both skills which can be applied to all core academic experiences. "As coding develops as a means of language and communications, all students deserve to be exposed to coding opportunities."
