What is Arcadia Educational Foundation?
Established in 1981, the Arcadia Educational Foundation (AEF) operates as a vital non-profit entity dedicated to bolstering funding for the Arcadia Unified School District (AUSD). Its inception was largely a response to diminished federal and state financial support for public education in California. The foundation's core objective is to raise essential funds, managed by a board of Trustees comprising parents and community members who champion the interests of AUSD's ten schools. AEF actively contributes to educational enrichment through its annual summer school program and by providing substantial teacher grants, recently allocating $840,000 to preserve 12 staff positions.

The foundation's commitment to bridging funding gaps underscores its critical role in maintaining the quality and stability of public education in the region.
