Annual Golf Tournament
Since 2005, the SISD Foundation has provided students with post-secondary education scholarships by raising funds through the annual golf tournament and employee and community contributions. Five scholarships are given to students at each of the district’s six comprehensive high schools. One scholarship is awarded to Mission Early College High School and another to Options High school.
