BVU, Treynor Schools Forge a Strategic Partnership
Buena Vista University partners with the Treynor Community School District to provide educational benefits to those who serve students.
Buena Vista University (BVU) and Treynor Community School District (Treynor CSD) have forged a Strategic Partnership to strengthen communities and those who serve students.
This partnership allows for employees of Treynor CSD, as well as eligible family members of full-time employees, to receive grant funding to lower the overall cost of education while enrolled in classes at BVU’s Storm Lake campus. Partner grant funding also lowers the cost per credit hour for students enrolled in BVU’s convenient online/hybrid undergraduate programs or the organizational leadership graduate program.
BVU professors and staff are also available for training programs, workshops, and more should officials with Treynor CSD seek those services and expertise.
“We are grateful for our partnership with Buena Vista University as we will be able to offer our employees and their eligible family members opportunities to further their education,” says Treynor CSD Superintendent Mark Hopkins, a BVU graduate. “This partnership represents a win-win situation for not only our district, but for our greater community as well.”
The Treynor CSD is a rural school district east of Council Bluffs and has approximately 110 employees that serve more than 800 students. The district’s elementary school educates students in grades K-5, and the middle school and high school building educates students in grades 6-12.
“At BVU, we are proud to partner with school districts across Iowa, providing opportunities to those who serve students,” says BVU Director of Strategic Partnerships Laura Todd. “By working together, we can uplift our communities through education.”
