Grateful Grads

  • Purpose: 
    The mission of the Grateful Grads is to be an Active, Visible, and Positive role model within Lake Dallas High School and the community.

    • Model and teach our LDHS students to make eye contact, extend a handshake, and respond with a warm smile and a "Good morning." 
    • Allows students to see the caring nature and support of our community as they enter school.
    • This program provides a way for LDHS supporters to 'give a hand' with the kids at school.
