EDUCATION FOUNDATION MISD GOLD CARD PROGRAM
The MISD Education Foundation partners with
the community to create a source of funding for
educators through grant projects that enrich and
enhance the classroom experience. The Foundation
has raised more than $3.5 million since 1998 to
support innovation in classrooms and hosts several
fundraising events throughout the year to carry out its
mission. The Gold Card Program provides great perks for
community members ages 65 and older. The card
gives seniors free access to district athletic events,
campus theatre productions and select events at
the MISD Center for the Performing Arts. As an
added token of appreciation, MISD hosts a free
senior tour in the spring that highlights various
campuses, academic programs and extracurricular
activities.
