Lakota Local Schools, West Chester Police Department and Butler County Sheriff's Office are proud to present the 4th summer program of Lakota Safety Village!

Lakota Safety Village is a free drop-off summer program for incoming kindergartners (must be starting in the fall of 2025) of West Chester Township and Liberty Township. Classes will be two hours long and will run for 5 days. All the lessons are taught by West Chester Police Officers, BCSO Deputies, firefighters and Lakota school bus drivers. We offer a morning and afternoon session each week with a maximum of 20 students in each session. At the end of the week, parents will get the opportunity to observe their student driving the pedal cars and Safety Village graduation.

How are we funded?

To fund our program, we are supported by a phenomenal foundation, 3 Little Halos. This foundation funds all of our needs each year and fund the program to make sure it is free to all students to attend. 3 Little Halos have a heart for our safety program and its importance to teaching young students safety habits and skills. Their goal is to one day fund a permanent location to expand on the Safety Village program and offer more safety education programs to the community.
