Who we are
FELS, the Foundation for Educators at LSRHS, is a non-profit organization that awards enrichment grants to Lincoln-Sudbury High School faculty and staff to pursue their professional and personal interests and passions. Founded in 2000 to offer parents a way to show their appreciation to the L-S professional staff for their unflagging dedication, tireless effort, and genuine care, our guiding principle is “Inspired Teachers Inspire Students.”
The LSRHS teachers and staff put true heart and soul into providing an excellent education for our children. Please consider a donation to FELS to honor their efforts and help provide healthy grant funding opportunities. Pursuit of personal interests and passions brings new energy and renewed focus for what is offered in the classrooms at LSRHS.
