Lakeville Art Center hosts grand opening of Student Art Show featuring K-12 works

During the recent Board of Education meeting held on March 25, 2025, members highlighted significant community events that underscore the Lakeville Public School District's commitment to fostering student engagement and community involvement.

One of the key topics discussed was the ongoing Lakeville Student Art Show at the Lakeville Art Center, which opened on March 10 and will run until April 3. This exhibition features artwork from students in grades K through 12, showcasing their creativity and talent. Board members encouraged community members to visit the show, emphasizing its importance in celebrating student achievements and promoting the arts within the district.

Additionally, the meeting acknowledged a community fundraising event at Culver's, known as JFK Night, where a portion of the proceeds supports local schools. This initiative not only raises funds—typically around $200 to $300—but also serves as a platform for teachers to engage with families and strengthen community ties. Board members expressed gratitude for the teachers who volunteer their time during these events, highlighting their dedication to both education and community building.

The discussions at the meeting reflect a broader commitment to enhancing student experiences and fostering a supportive community environment. As the district continues to promote such initiatives, the involvement of families and local businesses remains crucial in supporting educational programs and enriching the lives of students. The board looks forward to further community engagement opportunities and the positive impact these events have on the Lakeville Public School District.
