Altrusa International of Citrus County, FL, Inc. is excited to announce that the 4th annual Bunco for Books fundraiser has gone VIRTUAL! To ensure a safe environment for all our returning and new BUNCO players, we decided to continue the event this year with a twist.

Every January CCEF hosts a celebratory dinner honoring the Teacher of the Year and School Related Employee of the Year from each district school and department. Galaxy is a night to award and honor those who do so much for our students each and every day.

The event takes place in April each year, and is part of the Education Foundation’s “Educational Fitness” month which helps to raise money for public education while focusing on the importance of healthy minds and bodies.

Math Field Day is a competition that affords middle and high school students the opportunity to demonstrate knowledge and skills they have acquired during their courses throughout the school year. While it strengthens school spirit, the tournament also encourages teamwork and promotes interest in the field of mathematics.

An evening celebrating our best and brightest graduating Seniors. The awards are based on academic achievement, personal accomplishments and service to their school. Seniors are nominated by each high school and the potential winners are chosen by a selection committee.

The Superintendent’s Golf Classic is the longest running fundraiser for the Citrus County Education Foundation. This annual event brings together approximately 150 golfers competing in three flights based upon the skill level of their team. The event includes door prizes, raffles, hole-in-one prizes, and more. All golfers are treated to free breakfast, snacks, and lunch during the event.

We are hosting the 7th Annual Citrus Kids Triathlon! The event features three divisions: Junior (Born 2009-2014), Senior (Born 2004-2008) and a Tri4Fun that is open to any age.

Each year, CCEF provides every teacher and department in Citrus County public schools with an opportunity to apply for a $500 or $1,000 Mini-Grant. Mini-Grants give teachers the opportunity to enhance the classroom experience with supplemental tools and resources focusing on literacy.
