Testimonials

"Hungry bellies can't learn. A safe roof over your head and food to eat are basic human rights. Our main focus at the McAuliffe at Smiley Foundation is ensuring our students have what they need to succeed. That focus is why we have a food bank. It's why we have uniforms, coats, and shoes stashed away in a closet on campus. It's why we provide scholarships for kids to participate in field trips or on sports teams. Everything we do is through a lens of providing the best possible environment for our students so they can succeed."

Michelle Scott, Board Member McAuliffe at Smiley Foundation


"The McAuliffe at Smiley Foundation wants to ensure that the Smiley Middle School campus provides a welcoming and inspiring environment that promotes learning and achievement. The main school building, constructed in 1928, is a historic landmark whose impressive scale and architecture reflects the vital importance the community placed upon educating its children."
