Princeton Independent School District
El Dorado is proud to help out a local teacher!!
Jonathon Clayton, on behalf of El Dorado Chevrolet in McKinney, presented a check to Philip Anthony, PISD executive director of operations. The funds are for district UIL coordinator and PHS debate teacher Heather Stringer to help with her next three car payments. Stringer has been sidelined recently, both physically and financially, as she deals with continuing health issues in the aftermath of a battle with cancer. Mr. Clayton wanted to offer assistance to Ms. Stringer since she’s a loyal customer of his, as well as a “hard-working teacher dedicated to kids.”
