About Us
Turning Intrest into Action
Dealing with the challenges of equipping our students and teaching professionals with all the necessary tools requires problem-solvers who bring different perspectives and are willing to dedicate time and resources. Salado Education Foundation emerged from a pursuit to inspire and support the Salado ISD community and a desire for actions to speak louder than words. Established in 1999, we’re an organization driven by bold actions and a strong foundation of support and passion for our students and educators. The SEF raises money through our Cattlemen's Ball every October.
