“On behalf of the entire staff at Myakka City Elementary, we want to express our sincere appreciation to Baycross Foundation for the extremely generous gift of a literacy interventionist teacher for the past two years. We are grateful and encouraged that sometimes the challenges of being a small, remotely located school can be offset by an organization whose only motive is to ultimately make the lives and futures of students better through a quality education.

Because of BCFF’s generous donation, we were able to implement a math and literacy intervention program that helped contribute to the success of our students performing above the state average in all content areas and our school becoming an “A” rated school for the 2017-18 school year. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you!

Sincerely, Kathy Price, Principal

Myakka City Elementary

“I would like to thank Baycross Foundation for the opportunity to work with the students and staff at Myakka City Elementary. Seeing the students’ confidence grow as their literacy in all area increases through their hard work and practice is such a reward in itself. Our staff has established high expectations and we are seeing the students rise to those expectations. I am grateful to be a part of such success and it makes me so happy to be able to contribute to that accomplishment.”
