Please help support the LEA Scholarship Fund

Give and make a difference!!!

Last year LEA awarded five $1,000 scholarships. The recipients were students from high schools in the county. Each recipient will be pursuing a career in education. With your help, we hope to continue this worthwhile effort each school year.

Although LEA is facilitating this campaign, it is really from all the employees of Loudoun County Public Schools. We are asking each LEA member to contribute four dollars (OR MORE) and not-yet members to contribute a dollar (OR MORE) and make a difference for a Loudoun County student who plans to enter the education field.

We challenge each LEA member to give a donation and any not-yet members in your building to give as well. Be counted among the sites with 100% participation!!!

Please check with your LEA representative for further information.

The Budget Process Isn't Over!


This Monday, April 29th the Loudoun County School Board will hear public comments before making its final decision on next year's school budget. This includes possible changes to healthcare and benefit plans for current and retired employees.

As you may already know, the School Board is facing some tough choices due to the Board of Supervisors' decision to cut taxes rather than fund our growing schools. Join us at Monday's meeting to tell the School Board to honor their commitments to LCPS employees, retirees, and students while finding savings elsewhere in this difficult budget.

Click here to RSVP and join your sisters and brothers at the meeting.

For too long our elected officials have chosen cuts over kids and this meeting is our opportunity to tell them what we think. We want to hear your ideas on where the School Board can find savings in the budget.

See you on Monday.

In Solidarity,
