The Galveston Independent School District Educational Foundation had its annual Seaside Spring Soiree on March 10 at Sea Scout Base Galveston. More than 300 guests were on hand to celebrate the culmination of the annual campaign benefiting the foundation and the Grants to Teachers and Schools program. Funds raised from the event will provide financial assistance to purchase learning materials and implement innovative programming in Galveston Independent School District classrooms. Guests were treated to catering by the Galveston Restaurant Group, an ice cream dessert bar provided by Ben & Jerry’s, beer donated by Del Papa Distributing, dancing, music and a silent auction.
