For generations, Lakota people had a strong education system that effectively conveyed practical skills and knowledge, shared cultural values, and instilled a sense of self-worth and identity. The Sicangu Education Initiative is working to revitalize these principles of Lakota education within a modern context. Through individualized student learning, project based learning in a cultural context, critical thinking & problem solving and whole family engagement, they prepare children to stand with everything Lakota, and ensure they are ready to take on anything.
