Congratulations to our 2024-2025 Scholarship Recipients!
The Foundation works to provide LPS students with the means to reach for their dreams and maximize their own potential. Over the years, many generous individuals, businesses, and organizations have established scholarship funds at the Foundation to help students achieve their educational goals. This year we awarded over $148,000 to over 70 LPS seniors to further their education.
