Supporting Excellence: How Lake Oswego Schools Foundation Makes a Difference

In this Learning in Lake Oswego episode, we spotlight the Lake Oswego Schools Foundation, a cornerstone of our school district for nearly 40 years. The Foundation has played a vital role in bridging the gap between state funding and the level of excellence Lake Oswego families expect in their schools. To help us dive deeper, we welcome three special guests: Whitney Woolf, Executive Director of the Foundation, shares insights into its mission, priorities, and impact; Laura Coyle, Foundation Board President, discusses the power of volunteerism and the board’s vision for the future; and John Wasielewski (Waz), Lake Oswego Middle School teacher and Foundation ambassador explains how the Foundation supports teachers and enhances students' learning experiences. Learn how the Foundation impacts every school in the district, how you can get involved, and the exciting opportunities that events like the annual Gala bring to our community.Dr. Jennifer Schiele, Superintendent, LOSDMary Kay Larson, Executive Director of Communications, LOSDWhitney Woolf, Executive Director, Lake Oswego Schools FoundationLaura Coyle, President, Lake Oswego Schools FoundationJohn Wasielewski, Ambassador, Lake Oswego Schools Foundationlosfoundation.org To learn more about the topics we discussed, ask a question, or share ideas for future episodes, please visit LOSDSchools.  org.  And remember to like and follow us wherever you get your podcasts.  Thank you for engaging with Learning in Lake Oswego.
