The Lakota Education Association is offering the Lakota Education Association's Memorial Scholarship to honor the legacies of recently lost educators. Each year, in the event that an active LEA Member passes, the LEA will provide a one-time $1,000 scholarship to help support students in need. Any graduating Lakota senior may apply.
The winner will be announced shortly......
Even though we can see light at the end of the tunnel, we are sadly cancelling our LEA Banquet again this year. Hopefully, we can resume the event next spring.
All LEA members will be entered for a random gift card drawing. Each week beginning, Monday April 13 we will be drawing 50 names for $20 gift cards. Make sure you visit this website
to see if you are one of the lucky winners!!!

Personal Day Conversion
It is currently in our contract that if you have 3 personal days remaining at the end of the year, you can convert them to one extra personal day next year. If you don’t have 3 remaining then they convert 1:1 to sick days. You must request it by filling out the Personal Leave Conversion Form (Appendix O). The form can be found under the tab 'District Forms' above. There is a deadline and instructions on the form that you must follow.

Let's stay on the right path...Wear Masks, Social Distance, Limit your exposure, Keep Safe!
