We accomplish our mission through our grant programs, which provide Lexington Public School teachers with the knowledge, experience, and materials they need to remain at the frontiers of educational excellence. Our grants finance educational opportunities outside the scope of the school operating budget and target areas such as innovation in curriculum and instruction, professional development, and teacher mentoring.

LEF is directed by a non-salaried board of community members and supported by contributions from residents and area businesses. LEF donors and volunteers reflect Lexington’s spirit of cooperation, generosity, and shared responsibility for the public education of Lexington children.
