A strategic plan is Lakota’s roadmap to the future, defining our mission and vision as to how to best support students and prepare them for the future.

Lakota Local Schools is in the process of updating its strategic plan. Once completed, the strategic plan will serve as the District's roadmap, defining our mission and vision as to how to best support students and prepare them for the future.

The strategic plan will guide the district’s direction for the next three-to-five years and help keep the focus on what matters most for students.
