Meet Andrea Hilsabeck and Michele Colaco, LPIE School Chairs for Acalanes High School. Andrea has a freshman son at Acalanes, a junior daughter at Head-Royce School and a graduate of USC. Michele has a sophomore son at Acalanes and a daughter in 8th grade at Stanley Middle School.

We have both volunteered our time to LPIE for many years because we know how vital LPIE is in bridging the funding gap at our Lafayette schools. Your LPIE donations at Acalanes support fifteen electives plus critical enrichment programs such as counseling and wellness services, college-level labs, world languages, technology, and advanced placement classes. LPIE funds department supplies and support in every subject at Acalanes. We are proud to be a part of LPIE and work closely with the Acalanes community to ensure all students have this exceptional educational experience.
