Since 1983 educators and students have benefited from monies provided by the Foundation for Excellence in Public Education in Clarke County, Georgia.  We continue to encourage, recognize, and reward excellence in the Clarke County School District.

You can help us in our mission AND enjoy great BBQ from Chef Emanuel Stone's culinary students at the Athens Community Career Academy.  Yes this is a fundraiser but more importantly it is a "Friend Raiser"--we are asking our friends to join us in showcasing all that is right in our district while enjoying good food prepared by our CCSD students.

Please find below the BBQ flyer that allows you to place orders to be picked up on Friday, February 28th, between 3-6 p.m. at either the Career Academy at H.T. Edwards or at Gaines Elementary School.  Note that the deadline to order and pay is Friday, February 21st.
