A group of young students and their teacher, all wearing red "Shawnee Tigers" shirts, pose in front of a Disney-themed backdrop featuring Mickey Mouse and a princess. Mickey Mouse is dressed in his classic tuxedo, and the princess wears a blue gown. Behind them, there is a balloon display in blue and white. The students hold a large check for $60,120, raised through a Disney Raffle Fundraiser. The atmosphere is festive, with the group smiling proudly in front of the display.

Wrapped up in a record-breaking year for Shawnee Early Childhood School’s “Disney Dash” was a lot of commitment, creativity and community spirit. The same could be said of all the fall fundraising traditions spanning Lakota’s schools. In fact, Lakota’s 14 K-6 parent volunteer groups have collectively raised over $290,000 this school year so far, not counting two schools whose flagship fundraisers are still ongoing.
