BLUE VALLEY EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION
2007-2008 ANNUAL REPORT
BVEF HOSTS 17th ANNUAL COMMUNITY BREAKFAST
“The Credit Union of Johnson County has been a BVEF sponsor since 1993
because we believe that being a responsible corporate citizen means supporting
our public schools.”
Mr. John Beverlin, President/CEO
The Blue Valley Educational Foundation held its
17th annual Community Breakfast in August at the
Overland Park Convention Center.
John Holt with Fox 4 News hosted the event. The
breakfast opened with the Pledge of Allegiance
led by Aleixi Martinez, paraprofessional from Blue
Valley North High School, who became a United
States citizen in 2006.
A video showcasing last year’s BVEF grants was
shown as the guests enjoyed breakfast. Three
presenting sponsors were recognized for donating
at the $10,000 level: The Administrative Assistants,
1
Ltd., First National Bank and Shawnee Mission
Medical Center. Underwriting sponsors Capital
Federal Savings and Regnier Family Foundations
were recognized for donating $7,500.
All 31 Blue Valley parent organizations were
thanked for their sponsorship by BVEF Executive
Director, Kate Allen and BVEF President, Mark
Cosby. The parent groups’ cumulative donations
were recognized at the presenting sponsor level.
Staff and student Sunflower Ambassadors who
exemplify the Blue Valley Virtues were honored.
Student Ambassador Sarah Brabston from Sunset
Ridge Elementary and Staff Ambassador Courtney
Domoney from Prairie Star Middle School were the
winners of a laptop drawing compliments of Dell
Computers.
The highlight of the breakfast was the “State of the
District” address given by Superintendent Tom Trigg to
the more than 800 attendees.
Dr. Trigg highlighted some of the district’s
accomplishments and progress on the strategic plan
such as 94% of Blue Valley students meeting standards
or better in math and 95% meeting standards or better
in reading.
Natalie Como, a Blue Valley North graduate, was
named a U. S. Presidential Scholar and she shared her
accomplishments in a video story.
Dr. Trigg closed with the success story of Ryan McHenry,
who encompasses everything about a goal of the strategic
plan to provide unparalleled personal growth for every
student. Ryan, a Blue Valley North junior with cerebral
palsy, is an active member of the BVN football team
thanks to football coach Jason Jones.
This year’s breakfast raised more than $179,000, a 100
percent increase from two years ago and a recordbreaking amount for the foundation.

at the March Board of Education meeting. The BVEF Virtue Vans visited
all Blue Valley schools to announce the staff and student Sunflower
Ambassadors.

they demonstrate or “live” the seven Blue Valley Virtues: compassion,
courage, honesty, perseverance, respect, responsibility and self-discipline.
