FELS is celebrating its 25th year and in that time has awarded close to 150 grants, totaling nearly $200,000. Lincoln-Sudbury Faculty and Staff are all eligible to apply for FELS Grants. The proposals are often for personal refreshment, long-held aspirations, course work or travel, all of which is undertaken during school vacation time and summer recess. Grants are funded from donations to the FELS annual appeals and proceeds from fundraisers including the annual FELS Thanksgiving Pie Sale and Prom Flower Sales.
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. FELS was founded in 2000 to offer parents a tangible way to show their appreciation to the L-S professional staff for the unflagging dedication, tireless effort, and genuine caring they routinely offer our children. Our guiding principle is “Inspired Teachers Inspire Students.”
