Our Mission
The Sarah Smith Education Foundation is a not-for-profit fundraising organization supporting the school’s pursuit of excellence in education. The funds we raise enrich the learning environment available to every classroom and every child at Sarah Smith Elementary. The generosity of our supporters allows us to offer a curriculum not available at any other public elementary school in Atlanta.

We welcome and encourage you to get involved with the SSEF whether it’s helping with the Auction, Annual Campaign, or joining the Board.  For more information on joining the SSEF Board, please review the 2012 SSEF Board Announcement.  Nominations for open Boad of Director positions are due by March 9, 2012.
