Lebanon Township Education Foundation
Committee List
The Lebanon Township Education Foundation was established to enhance the educational facilities and opportunities within the community. The committees listed below represent the principles of the foundation and were established to accomplish its goals and objectives. Through these committees and the volunteers that run them, we as a community can achieve a higher level of learning and continue to support the educational standard that so many community members have done before us.
Board and trustee members consist of the following positions: President, Vice President, Secretary, Assistant Secretary, Treasurer and Assistant Treasurer. In addition there are 3-5 Trustees. The board and trustees are voting members of the foundation and meet regularly once a month. These positions control the interests of the foundation and drive the decisions to move its endeavors forward.
