Every year, the District Parent Council (DPC) helps the school district honor 22 dedicated volunteers as recipients of the esteemed Barb Bossu Volunteer Spirit Award, and one award for a volunteer who has made a significant impact on the district at large.
The award was established in 1990 to commemorate former parent-volunteer and Union Elementary PTA Barb Bossu's very special dedication to public education. The DPC determines the district winner and each building determines its own school recipient, as nominated by members of the school community. All honorees are recognized at a district-wide ceremony near the end of the school year.
2024's Building Award Recipients were: Kara Woeller and Susanne Page and the District Award Winner was Leah Aguilar.
The 2024 reception and ceremony was held on April 24, at (9 am refreshments) 9:30 AM-11:30, at Lakota East Theater.
2025 LEHS Volunteer and District Award Nominee Packets will be available in the beginning of 2025 (download your desired form and submit.)
