Welcome to Curriculum & Instruction

At Lakota, we are committed to providing an individual, student-centered learning experience for every single child. We offer a full range of services to help children explore their passions and interests and achieve to their fullest potential, no matter where they are in their learning.

The Lakota Curriculum & Instruction Department provides leadership and assistance in the areas of curriculum, instructional practices, and assessments. A strong academic foundation is essential to students' future success; and we contribute to that foundation through the following:

• Aligning Lakota's curriculum and pacing guides to the Ohio Learning Standards.
• Implementing best teaching practices and supporting them through professional development.
• Using a variety of assessment tools as a way to provide data-driven instruction.

Explore the many facets of Lakota's curricular offerings, ranging from Gifted Services and Student Services to English as a Second Language and Special Education. Learn about our approach to both elementary education and secondary education, including the strong foundation we establish as early as preschool and kindergarten. For students seeking an alternative high school educational experience, explore our Career Readiness Academy. 

Our internship program for high-schoolers is an exciting step toward preparing students for a career path they'll excel at and enjoy. We hope you'll consider becoming a business partner, too, to support this budding program and all the students who pass through it.
