Mission
The Jacoby Creek Children’s Education Foundation (JCCEF) is a non-profit organization of parents, staff and community members whose primary purpose is to assist in the development, achievement, and maintenance of a superior educational system within the Jacoby Creek School District by providing general financial support to benefit children enrolled in Jacoby Creek School (JCS).
Last year the Foundation raised over $50,000 and donated nearly all of that, a record amount, back to the school, supporting a full range of programs, curriculum, events, class trips, technology, equipment, and scholarships.
