SAN MARCOS, Texas – To cap the College Football Playoff Foundation's Extra Yard for Teachers (EYFT) Week, the EYFT program donated $6,000 to San Marcos Consolidated Independent School District Dual Language Program. A special in-game recognition and check presentation took place as part of Hispanic Heritage Day at the Texas State football game against Nevada at Bobcat Stadium on Sept. 23.
The gift by Extra Yard for Teachers will impact around 1,200 students across four schools in the San Marcos community and go towards textbooks, training for teachers, additional dual language and bilingual resources for families, and field trips to cultural institutions.
