About the Program
Tools for Teachers is a partnership between the Harris County Department of Education (HCDE) and Education Foundation of Harris County (EFHC), designed to support Harris County school district teachers with classroom supplies at the beginning of the school year.
EFHC will offer $200,000 for this initiative, which the HCDE Board of Education allocated from its annual budget. The program aims to limit the personal cost teachers incur when buying materials to supplement the curriculum.
