Due to the high heat index, please note that Lakota West's Future Firebird Night was postponed from Aug. 30 to Sept. 27.
Future Thunderhawks and Firebirds in grades K-6 are invited to participate in a special tradition alongside all their Eastside OR Westside peers.
Future Hawks Night, happening on Friday, Aug. 23 in Lakota East's stadium, is open to ONLY students attending an Eastside feeder early childhood or elementary school (Hopewell ECS, Liberty ECS, Wyandot ECS, Independence, Union, Woodland and VanGorden). Future Firebirds Night, happening on Friday, Sept. 27 (originally scheduled for Aug. 30, but postponed due to the high heat index) in Lakota West's stadium, is open to ONLY students attending a Westside feeder early childhood or elementary school (Creekside ECS, Heritage ECS, Shawnee ECS, Adena, Cherokee, Endeavor and Freedom).
The tradition is an extension of one of each school's home football games and is hosted by East's and West's Parent Teacher Staff Organization (PTSO), respectively. Pregame activities are followed by an exciting parade around the field where each ECS and elementary school is represented. Students also help welcome the football team to the field!
