In the past five years, the Foundation has awarded over $250,000 to educators who propose innovative projects to enhance learning. It also works with the South Arkansas Community College to promote seminars for students and parents on âHow to Prepare and Pay for College.â Perhaps the most noteworthy contribution of the El Dorado Education Foundation has been to assist in the establishment of the nationâs first elementary and secondary school endowed chair program which enables the district to recruit outstanding talent to fill chair positions in mathematics, science and foreign language.

Arkansas Gross Receipts Tax Regulation GR-39(C), which the Department interprets as being generally applicable to school groups, provides that a PTA/PTO which purchases goods and merchandise from a supplier for resale must pay tax on its purchases. The subsequent resale of the goods is not subject to tax. If the vendor provides the PTA with order forms which are distributed to the students and the students solicit orders, the vendor must remit the sales tax on the total sales price for the item. The vendor may allow the student to collect the tax from the customer on the vendor's behalf. However, if the student does not collect the tax for the vendor, the vendor must still remit the total tax due to the state. The taxable amount is the sales price of the item.
