Welcome!

The Ramsey Public Education Foundation is pleased that you are here. Working together, we can enrich, enhance, and make extraordinary the quality of education in the Ramsey Public Schools.

Our Purpose

Our goal is to enhance the quality of our children's education by funding enrichment programs and innovative technologies that might otherwise remain beyond the scope of school budgets. With these important extras, we strive to make the educational experience in Ramsey truly exceptional.
