Bids and Bites is the Blanchard Education Foundation's annual fundraising event. This big event includes live music, food, drinks, silent auction, and an online aution. Recipients of Grants to Teachers will also be announced and awarded. 

This event is our biggest fundraiser of the year to fund our Grants To Teachers program. This program provides teachers with grants for the development and implementation of innovative teaching projects. Teachers submit ideas for the projects to the allocation committee who prioritizes grants based on imaginative projects which inspire students, generate enthusiasm, and promote academic excellence.

The purpose of the Blanchard Education Foundation is to provide resources to each of our students and teachers to exponentially benefit their academic success. Donations to the BEF allow academic experiences that might otherwise be unattainable within the regular school budget. The BEF provides an opportunity for active cooperation between YOU and Blanchard Schools. This unity will provide support for our teachers and students as they pursue innovative and creative education practices. That is why YOUR donation is an OPPORTUNITY to make a direct impact on Blanchard students. The Blanchard Education Foundation thanks you for your donation to enable the success of Blanchard Schools!
