The Addison Arbor Foundation launched a “Leaf Your Mark” fund‐raising effort to help plant trees at the Town of Addison’s first Dallas Independent School District (DISD) school, the George Herbert Walker Bush Elementary School on Spring Valley Road. The school opened on August 22, 2011. The new school, named after the 41st president of the United States, is linked to a large green area and walking trail that extends both north and south of the school, and to Addison’s trail network.
The Town supervised the installation of the plant materials and maintains the area like a park. The Addison Arbor Foundation, which initially donated $8,100, joined with the Town to raise an additional $28,000 in donations for the trees.
