Lakota uses an online platform called ThoughtExchange to regularly engage our community by gathering input on different topics. The tool encourages participants to share their own thoughts by answering a single question and then rate others’ thoughts according to how strongly you agree. As a district, we use the results to gauge the most popular opinions and prioritize our work accordingly. 

Participate in Lakota's Active ThoughtExchanges

Lakota is committed to keeping the community informed about our schools through regular printed and electronic publications shared with our parents, staff, students, residents and businesses.

Catch up on the latest in Lakota's most recent district e-newsletter, Quality Profile, Financial Prospectus or community mailer.
