The “Light Up Lakota!” school showcase will be held at Lakota West High School from 6-7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, March 11.

The reformatted version of Lakota’s former “State of the Schools” tradition, “Light Up Lakota!” will shine the spotlight on the coursework, extracurricular activities, programs and services that directly support the four pillars of Lakota’s strategic plan: WE are Personalized; WE are Future Ready; WE are Fiscally Responsible; and WE are In This Together.

The event is open to the entire community. Beyond the school showcase that includes a booth for each of Lakota’s 23 schools, spotlight performances and presentations will showcase select programs at every grade band that make up the Lakota experience. Attendees will be able to enjoy the open house format of the evening around the scheduled performances and presentations they wish to hear more about. 

Additionally, an art gallery will put on display student talent and visual arts projects from most schools, while a special interactive section dedicated to “WE are Fiscally Responsible” will share valuable information about Lakota’s finances.
