January is School Board Appreciation Month, and we want to take a moment to thank our Lakota School Board members for their time and dedication to our students, staff, and community.

Their commitment helps guide decisions that support learning, growth, and success across Lakota Public Schools. We appreciate all you do for our schools and community!

All of Mrs. Ulland's 7-12 science classes participated in CSforAll and Code.org's Hour of AI today. We all dream of a bright future for our children. In today’s digital world, their success will increasingly depend on understanding how artificial intelligence works. Hour of AI introduces students to the basics of AI — what it is, what it can and can’t do, and how to use and create with it responsibly. The lesson (called Music Lab: Jam Session) involved programming and remixing some of their favorite songs using AI assisted elements, like layering harmonies and adding drum beats. Each student made their own remix and the results were wonderfully creative and impressive. All classes had a lot of fun! #HourOfAI #code.org #CSforAll
