"It was an absolute privilege to volunteer on the LAEF board for five years. It was an honor to collaborate with such a dedicated and talented group of people. The strength of the organization stems from combining a diversity of ideas, backgrounds, and approaches with an unwavering focus on creating an outstanding educational experience for all LASD students. I leave the board knowing it is in extremely capable hands."
– Steve Apfelberg, LAEF Board Member 2018-2023
