Build the Bridge Breakfast
The Stafford MSD Education Foundation and the City of Stafford hosted their first Build the Bridge Breakfast February 26, 2008, to bring together the school, city, and businesses. Ten students from the district spoke to the audience on their future aspirations and invited the businesses to support the foundation. Foundation President, Cindy Hoelscher, presented the first Bridge Builder award to Kathy Ratcliff for her late husband James Noel Ratcliff. Mr. Ratcliff had served SMSD as a teacher, coach, parent, and school board trustee.
