Investing in Brighter Futures
The Los Alamos Public Schools Foundation is an independent organization that supports, challenges, and invests in a successful future for all Los Alamos public school students. Since its inception in 2005, the LAPS Foundation has raised more than $1 million to fund opportunities and materials for students, provide professional development for district educators, defray operating expenses, and assist with capital improvements to enrich learning environments in the Los Alamos public schools. The LAPS Foundation raises money through generous contributions from individuals and organizations who share the Foundation’s core values.

“One of the Los Alamos County Council strategic goals is to support Los Alamos Public Schools’ goal of ranking among the top public schools in the nation. Those of us in local government appreciate that a strong school system is fundamental to the continued progress of our community.

The Los Alamos Public Schools Foundation is a great partner and leader in our community toward this goal.”
