About Griffith Education Foundation

At the heart of a strong community lies a strong school system. The Griffith Education Foundation was established in 1984 by a group of dedicated Griffith residents who recognized the need to support and strengthen our schools. Their vision was to foster excellence in teaching and enhance the educational experience for all students. Today, the Foundation continues that mission—investing in innovative programs, empowering educators, and helping every student reach their full potential.
