2012 Prize Posse
On October 4, 2012, the Galena Park ISD Education Foundation made dreams come true again for Galena Park ISD teachers. The Education Foundation awarded 10 grants totaling $22,465 during our annual Prize Posse. On this special day, we decorate school buses, load them up with our "friends of the Foundation" and surprise teachers with the good news that they have won a grant. The day is filled with shouts of joy, tears of happiness and even a few somersaults !
