The Lake Travis Education Foundation is pleased to announce it realized a significant increase in contributions in the 2019-2020 Employee Giving campaign. Funds raised benefit the LTEF which provides scholarships to Lake Travis High School graduating seniors and LTISD teachers for class projects.

The campaign is led by our LT Campus and Department Champions. This is also the inaugural year of the LTEF Cornerstone Club. The program highlights LTISD staff as the “cornerstone” of exceptional educational experiences and opportunities for students.

I want to express my sincere appreciation to the entire Lake Travis ISD family for its meaningful support of the Lake Travis Education Foundation annual employee giving campaign. Both giving and participation hit an all time high this year. Our goal was $35,000 and you blew past that by donating over $40,000, and, we had an astounding 60% of our employees participate. As you may know, this money goes right back into our classrooms and schools and I am gratified that you chose to spend a portion of your paycheck to support our programs. Thank you!
— Brad Lancaster, Superintendent of Schools
