Manhattan Beach Education Foundation (MBEF) is a non-profit, district-wide organization
that provides grants to support teacher and district-wide requests in response
to the widening gap between state funding and the level of academic excellence
demanded by
Manhattan Beach
families. MBEF grants (in
partnership with PTAs) have grown to include funding for class size reduction,
PE, library and technology personnel, classroom assistants (4th and 5th grades), Educational Support Specialists and Instrumental Music Specialists
salaries just to name a few at the Elementary school level.
The Foundation’s funding comes directly from membership, businesses and
corporate sponsors, and fundraising events. All parents are encouraged to
support MBEF’s annual appeal and fundraising. All parents are welcome to
attend the monthly MBEF Board of Directors meetings held on the second Tuesday
of the month at 7:30 PM in the MBUSD Education Center Board Room. Individuals
are encouraged to become involved in the various committees that support the
Board’s work. Contact the MBEF office directly or our Pennekamp representative
for further information.
