In 2012, the new Affton Early
Childhood Center was opened at

AFFTON EDUCATION FOUNDATION

AHS 2016 SENIOR CLASS PROFILE

The Affton Education Foundation is an independent, non-profit
organization dedicated to supporting Afftons commitment to excellence
in education. The Foundations mission is to improve and enhance
educational opportunities and resources for all children enrolled in the
Affton School District, and for the teachers who support them. For more
information or to learn how you can help, please visit www.
afftoneducationfoundation.org.
Affton Education Foundation Programs:

The Teacher Grant Program awards grants of up to $1,000 each year
to teachers who propose innovative and extraordinary efforts for their
classrooms. These programs are supported by donations from alumni,
parents and local businesses, and from the Foundations annual auction. In
October, 31 teacher grants were awarded, a total of $26,433, bringing the
total value of funded projects to $227,986 since the programs
establishment in 2006. These selected projects have touched the lives of
hundreds of children by more effectively engaging students in the learning
process.
The Affton Education Foundation Scholarship Program manages and
administers not only its own AEF Scholarship Fund, but also a number of
additional scholarships established in the names of former teachers,
administrators, parents and alumni. The Foundation awards four $2,500
renewable college scholarships to qualifying Affton High graduates each
year, funding them from gifts and income from the Foundation endowment
fund. In addition to these scholarships, the Foundation also awards several
four-year full tuition scholarships funded by separate alumni endowments:
the Kent (58) and Judy (Laudenslager) (61) Mueller Westminster College
scholarship, and the Rickli Family Truman State scholarship. Finally, the
Jim Hoots Memorial Scholarship was established to provide college
scholarship funds to a student who has displayed outstanding leadership,
dedication and sportsmanship while participating in an Affton High School
sponsored athletic program.

The Foundation also sponsors an ongoing series of college trips for
juniors and seniors visiting a variety of colleges and universities. These
trips permit them to meet with students, professors and college presidents
and have been truly life-changing experiences for these students.
The Affton Alumni Association maintains the alumni database, assists
in organizing class reunions and helps support targeted AEF initiatives. For
