Donations are made to the League of Education Voters (LEV) and the LEV Foundation by individuals, groups, and businesses throughout the community. These generous donations from those who believe in high-quality public education allow us to ensure measurable progress toward LEV's vision that every student in Washington state has access to an excellent public education that provides the opportunity for success.
We'd like to take a moment to celebrate our supporters who donated to LEV or the LEV Foundation between April 1 and July 31 of 2015. Thank you!

As many school districts and teachers continue negotiating to renew their collective bargaining agreements, the League of Education Voters is watching and waiting to learn which districts plan to strike (or are already striking) this fall. To help you, we have created a "frequently-asked-questions" page on our website so that you know what to expect if your district's teachers walk out. Learn more about strikes.
We are also offering a Lunchtime LEVinar on strikes on Tuesday, September 15, sponsored by The Boeing Company and Carter Subaru. Register today
