The El Dorado School District is unique in a number of ways. It receives unparalled support from the El Dorado Education Foundation (EDEF), a non-profit organization that recognizes excellence with financial incentives for teachers. 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 “How to Prepare and Pay for College.” Perhaps the most noteworthy contribution of the El Dorado Education Foundation has been to assist in the establishment of the nation’s 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. EDEF also manages a program that recognizes excellent performance with annual monetary awards to teachers.

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.
