SUPPORTING
INNOVATIVE
LEARNING
in Beaufort County Public Schools
The Foundation for Educational Excellence seeks and sustains county-wide charitable and educational resources that support the mission and goals of the public schools of Beaufort County, SC.


The Foundation for Educational Excellence announced funding for 11 Innovative Teacher and School Resource grants to teachers and schools throughout the Beaufort County School District. These grants were awarded for innovative learning opportunities and projects that go beyond the regular school district budget. A total of eight schools north and south of the Broad are represented by the awards provided. To learn more about the projects funded, read our blog by clicking here.

The Foundation for Educational Excellence proudly presented the 2025 Dr. Wayne Carbiener “Above & Beyond” Award to Allison Gallagher, Beaufort County School District’s Teacher of the Year and a science teacher at H.E. McCracken Middle School. She received a $1,000 grant to support her classroom projects and student needs. This annual award honors the legacy of Dr. Wayne Carbiener, a devoted advocate for education, and recognizes teachers who go “above and beyond” for their students.


The Foundation is so grateful for our generous donors! We are over $6,000 to our $10,000 goal for our Funding to Inspire Innovation Campaign, but we still need your support! Please consider donating to
