-Dr. Alex Cherniss
Superintendent of Schools
Palos Verdes Peninsula Unified
School District
I would like to express my gratitude
for the ongoing partnership with Peninsula
Education Foundation and the many donors
investing in the education of our children.
Even in the most challenging times, the
Foundation has remained diligent, creative
and positive to provide funds to enhance
educational excellence for our students.
Unfortunately, PVPUSD continues to receive
significantly less money per student than
surrounding districts; PEF continues to help
bridge the funding gap, enabling us to
sustain many important programs.
It is clear that much of the success of
PVPUSD is a direct result of this amazing
community that values the importance of
education, our students and our schools.
Together in partnership, we have accom-
plished many great things and continue
towards the same goal, to provide the best
possible education for every student, at all
levels, and every school. We could not do
this without your generous donations and
ongoing support. We also remain grateful
for the positive work and tireless dedication
of the PEF Board of Trustees, staff and count-
less volunteers who all share in our vision of
"Putting Kids First."
