Lakota’s new “Community Conversation” program, which began in late September and involves various community members hosting forums to help inform the school district on how to better serve its students, has two more conversations set up this month.
“The goal is reach out into the community, to get to hear from people we often don’t get to see,” Lakota Superintendent Karen Mantia said. “If you have an interest in the school district or in the growth of the community … we invite you to either host a conversation or be a part of it.”
“Community Conversation” schedule this month:
Tuesday, Jan. 15
7 to 8:30 p.m.
6787 Eagle Creek Drive, Liberty Township
Hosted by Susan McLaughlin
Thursday, Jan. 31
7 to 8:30 p.m.
6788 Eldorado Drive, Liberty Township
Hosted by Terri Ryan
The school district is strongly encouraging its community members from all different perspectives to host conversations. There is no time table to when the conversations will end, but the plan is continue these talks for a long period.
