Mission Statement
The mission of the Haldane School Foundation is to enhance the quality of public education
by engaging the support and partnership of educators, citizens, parents and students. The
Foundation is committed to the development of an exceptional system of public education
by promoting excellence. The Foundation will:
-Strengthen the curriculum by serving as a catalyst for the development and promotion of
innovative programs
-Support additional professional development for faculty members and enhance the
educational resources available to them
-Increase the community’s awareness and support for its schools
Statement of Purpose
The purpose of the Haldane School Foundation is to provide a community based, nonprofit
organization that will help enhance the excellence of the Haldane Central School District.
The Foundation will encourage greater involvement and support for the schools by the
community, corporations, foundations and others and facilitate the development of and
support for enrichment and other beneficial programs for Haldane Schools.
The Haldane School Foundation will work in close collaboration with the Superintendent
and administration, school faculty and members of the Haldane community in developing
programs and projects for the schools. The Foundation will help raise funds for proposals that
have been identified and turn such funds over to the school district, which will be responsible
for the expenditure.

The operating principals that will drive the process by which the Foundation’s activities will
be determined are as follows:
-All programs and activities must relate to the mission of the Foundation
-A preference will be given to programs and activities that relate directly to student learning
-The Foundation will work in close collaboration with the Board of Education and school
administration in establishing parameters for the kinds of programs that will be funded,
soliciting proposals, selecting projects, and evaluating the results of funded projects
-The final decision for the expenditure of funds raised by the Foundation for specific
programs and activities will be the responsibility of the Board of Education, pursuant to New
York State Education law.
