Lexington High School hosted Yaa Gyasi, award-winning author of Homegoing, to talk with the entire sophomore class who read her novel, and to present a community-wide discussion on cultural inheritance. LHS also hosted Mike Smith, who inspired students and educators to find their passion using communication and resiliency skills.

Since 1989, Lexington Education Foundation volunteers have sought the support of parents like yourselves, businesses and organizations to bring innovative, inspiring and impactful experiences into every school, for every student. Why? Because kids matter. A supportive educational experience matters. Educators matter. Inspiration matters.
