Thank you for supporting LEF we could not do this without your support!

The Lexington Education Foundation (LEF) was founded in 1989 to support “better schools, brighter futures” for Lexington Public School students. LEF funds faculty-initiated grants that help address emerging issues and priorities in the district. LEF grants often fund pilot programs that point the district towards the most effective ways to address challenges and improve achievement for all students.

Since our founding, LEF has awarded grants totaling over $6 million from funds raised from individuals and businesses throughout our community. Grants support exploration of innovative approaches to teaching, development of educational materials, testing of new uses of technology to meet educational needs, and professional development that enriches teachers’ subject-area knowledge and skill. Grants range in size and scope. Proposals are carefully reviewed to ensure a focus on efforts that contribute to student achievement and the quality of our schools.

Lexington Education Foundation (LEF) is an independent 501(c)(3) charitable organization. While LEF solely supports Lexington Public Schools, LEF is not affiliated with the Lexington Public Schools.
