BLACK STUDENT UNION (BSU)

LAKESIDE BSU MISSION: The vision was created in 2014 with a small group of students joining at lunch to provide them a space to gather. The LHS BSU was officially Established in 2017. The mission of the Black Student Union is to promote a positive and productive representation of the African American community on and off the LAKESIDE High School campus. We promote proactive leadership, scholarship, community outreach, and student empowerment. We embrace our cultural heritage, unity, and the appreciation of diversity.

The BSU's focus is to build awareness, education, and a new level of consciousness about being an African American in today's society. We aim to teach others about diversity  and show that through engaging in activities focused around acceptance and tolerance, we will get a better understanding of others while learning about ourselves.

ALL STUDENTS are welcome to be a part of our mission.

CLUB GOAL: The goal of this club is to provide students with an opportunity to engage in activities and discussions designed to help foster a better understanding of experiences and issues that impact African-American students. This club is open to all students regardless of racial and/or cultural differences. This club welcomes diversity as it provides a table for rich discussion, understanding and acceptance. The club is student governed with faculty supervision and sponsorship.
