The Eagle Fund was established in 1998
by members of the communities
that comprise the Southern Berkshire Regional School District as a permanent
endowment with the earnings to be invested in educational projects proposed
by students, teachers, and community members in the District.
The purpose of The Eagle Fund was to stimulate and celebrate the creative
excellence in our students and teachers and to facilitate and support
improvements and innovative initiatives at the Southern Berkshire Regional
School District using private philanthropic resources. As an endowment
fund, the assets of the fund are invested to produce income and growth
in perpetuity to provide grants to the school community, keeping it on
the creative edge and always improving, especially when the operating
budget and other sources of revenue cannot offer that support.
The Eagle Fund is not intended to be a substitute
for public support for the school district's budget, but will provide
for those programs and purchases that will distinguish the school in
terms of the quality of the educational experience offered to students.
