teacher of the year


honoring one teacher from each school every year
LAEF is honored to partner with Los Alamitos Unified School District to honor one teacher from each of our nine schools on an annual basis.
Each spring, LAEF invites the Teacher of the Year, their principal and their guests to Old Ranch Country Club for an evening event that celebrates their incredible work and lasting impact on the children of our community.
LAEF began hosting the event in 2023 after the Seal Beach Lions ended their decades long support and coordination of a similar event. We are thankful to the Lions for their many years of support!
LAEF's mission is to prepare EVERY child in our district for college and beyond!
We recognize the significant impact of Los Al teachers in LAEF’s mission! Thank you for all that you do every day for every Los Al kid!
