Together, we bring diverse life experiences and perspectives that help us connect with the LPS community we are entrusted to serve. We have board members who:
- Have past military experience
- Speak more than one language
- Identify or have loved ones who identify as LGBTQ+
- Have experience with nontraditional family or guardianship structures
- Have grappled with the challenges of mental health, food insecurity, or homelessness
- Have experience with special education and with gifted and talented services
Additionally, several members are LPS alumni and, while in high school, worked part-time and participated in athletics and other extracurricular activities. We have board members who chose non-traditional career paths that did not involve earning college degrees. For those who attended higher education, the majority worked during or took out loans to help cover costs, and we also have board members who were first-generation college students.
All of these attributes bring a wealth of perspectives to our work on the LPSF Board. These traits enrich our discussions and decision-making and help us understand and connect to LPS students and families. We strive to go further, and continue to welcome additional diverse voices to our board. Our diversity makes us stronger together, widening our lens and expanding the impact of our financial support.
