The Leander ISD Educational Excellence Foundation (LEEF) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to providing resources that support innovation, enrichment and equity in pursuit of academic excellence within the Leander Independent School District. LEEF supports its mission through three main program initiatives: Foundations for Learning focusing on early literacy, Enriching Great Teaching through innovative teaching grants and professional development, and College Ready, College Bound to build a college and career-ready culture among all students.
Leander ISD currently serves more than 38,000 students and is expected to grow significantly in the next 10 years. With state funding for public education continuing to shrink, LEEF's role in providing additional resources for teachers and students in our district is increasingly important. Please join us in this critical mission.
The Viper Nation Education Foundation is your local academic booster club, supporting all eight schools in the Vandegrift High School feeder pattern. To learn more about our Impact and Annual Grants please watch our video or visit our website! Our annual fundraising campaign is live, with an exciting way for you to help support our teachers, schools and students. To learn more, please visit www.ViperNationEF.org.
