JUST FOR YOU
LIBERTY PUBLIC SCHOOLS FACULTY & STAFF,
You make LPS SHINE! Thank you for making LPS a special place where all students have the opportunity to thrive. It is an honor to serve our students and incredible district alongside of you. We have several initiatives in place just for you!
WE ❤️ FACULTY & STAFF…
WEEKLY, MONTHLY, IN NOVEMBER AND LOTS OF SURPRISES IN BETWEEN! ☀️
-
STAY IN THE LOOP
In addition to following us on social media, we send several newsletters throughout the year so that we can keep you in the loop on Foundation happenings.

AMAZON WISHLIST WEEKLY DRAWINGS
Our popular wishlist drawings have returned for the 2024-2025 school year! Winners share their Amazon Wishlist, and we purchase the items for your classroom (up to $150) and have them delivered to your building!
-
FOUNDATION FIRST WEDNESDAYS
Wednesdays are so fun! We encourage staff donors to wear their Foundation t-shirts the first Wednesday of the month, and our Building Champions coordinate a game with a prize from us.
-
THANKFUL FOR YOU NOVEMBER
Thankful for You is our month-long initiative when we express our tremendous appreciation for you - all (nearly 2,000) LPS faculty and staff - with treats, drawings, comfy clothes days and games with prizes.

TREATS, SURPRISES AND MORE
We want you to know how much we appreciate all you do for our LPS community! We love surprising you with treats, fun giveaways and sometimes a friendly competition!
LIBERTY EDUCATION FOUNDATION GRANTS
We are now accepting grant proposals for the 2024-2025 school year! Tap the link below for more information.
STUDENT GRANTS
Gina Lange at Heritage Middle School guided a group of students through the Student Grant process and said, “I love this opportunity for students to create an idea, fill out a proposal, interview and then see the process through and see their plan in action. So thankful LEF has this opportunity for students.”
SOAR AWARDS
We are proud to sponsor the SOAR Awards.
The SOAR (Service Over and Above the Rest) Awards is the LPS employee recognition program, and several employees are recognized each month! Recipients are presented with a certificate along with a gift card from the Foundation.
2024-2025 STAFF CAMPAIGN
As we invest in bright futures, we invite you to join us through our annual staff campaign. Last year we hit a historic milestone with 1,000 faculty and staff members participating in our Staff Campaign.
BUILDING CHAMPIONS
Each LPS school has a Foundation representative called a Building Champion. Reach out to them if you have any questions! Or of course, you can contact us at lef@lps53.org. 🙂
