The Alliance for Excellence is a non-profit foundation established to support excellence in teaching every aspect of every child within School District 65.
First iPads
The Alliance for Excellence funded the first iPads to be used in Lake Bluff schools. The "Increased Ingenuity with iPads" program was designed for all Kindergarten students to promote functional and creative learning.
Music Programs
