The SCUC Education Foundation was created in 2008 when a group of like-minded community members decided to give back to the teachers of the district. Those founders studied other local school district foundations and decided that even though SCUC ISD was a smaller district at the time, the teachers and staff could stand to have some financial help when it came to implementing innovative teaching initiatives throughout the district.

The first fundraiser held was a breakfast at Garcia's on FM 3009 that was then followed by the first golf tournament at Olympia Hills Golf Course, and so began the opportunity to deliver more than $15,000 via a Prize Party the following school year. The Foundation has continued to give back through grants and gifts to the teachers of SCUC for the past 16 years.

In August 2022, the Foundation paused to review and refine it mission and its vision for the programs and projects it would fund for the future. That year of revitalization resulted in an increase in board membership, a renewed clarity in the mission of our non-profit organization, and a strategic development plan that is better connect our community as we work together to support students, teachers, and the staff in SCUC ISD.
