Quality Training
In its 48th year, the Lakota Nations Education Conference has been offering quality educational training to Teachers, Parents, Paraprofessionals, Administration, School Boards, and all staff that serve Native American students.
The conference committee feels it is our responsibility as American Indian parents and educators to develop education settings (formal and informal)where cultural understandings (political, historical, literary, technological, financial, medical, legal, and others are not transmitted accidentally, but by design.
The conference is held in Rapid City, SD at the Ramkota Inn and is devoted to offering valuable information to the counselors, PE Teachers, School nurses, and other educational and health staff.
The conference staff feel strongly that the needs of the "whole child" must be met. In an attempt to assist with this, LNEC will offer Trauma training. In addition, LNEC will be offering a variety of sessions dealing with all needs of the child.
The conference begins with a Pre-conference with three parts- A - B - C. Part A is School Funding and Finance with experts from Washington DC and the State of South Dakota. Part B covers the special needs in the classroom, and Part C will be Early Childhood Training.
LNEC also offers specific training for School Boards and Administration. Also training in Federal and State Programs, and this year we include Office Management training to our list.
Every effort is made to research and address the current needs of all parents and school staff. The coordinators of this conference, with over 65 years of combined experience, welcome advice and input as to the best topics to address each year.
