During this unfamiliar time, we have leaned into our mission, which is a constant reminder of what we do, who we serve, and who we want to be as a community. One line in particular has stood out as a guiding light: At LES, \u201cour reach extends not only to the child, but also to the family.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>With that in mind, the Board of Trustees has created\u00a0<em>Stronger Together<\/em>. Seeded with Board donations and emergency funds, this money will provide additional temporary tuition assistance for the 2020-21 school year to help keep our families enrolled. The\u00a0\u00a0money will also ensure our entire faculty and staff will remain whole through the end of this school year. You have supported LES, many of you for several years, and we want to make sure we show up for you in this unprecedented time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>With the creation of\u00a0<\/span><em>Stronger Together<\/em><span>\u00a0and the cancellation of the annual gala fundraiser, we have had to completely rework the LES budget. Every decision we\u2019ve made is in an effort to keep our community together. With that being said, many of you have asked\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><strong>How can I help?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>A donation of any amount to\u00a0<\/span><em>Stronger Together<\/em><span>\u00a0will help raise critical funds to support our entire community.

It will be a time for us to virtually come together as a community and make a real difference.
