PINE RIDGE, SD — Maȟpíya Lúta Schools are proud to announce that enrollment has grown by more than 100 students this school year.
Our rigorous college-prep curriculum drives this growth, our strong Lakota Catholic identity, and our Lakota language programming, including immersion classes, family engagement, and community outreach.
We are proud of our comprehensive athletic and extracurricular offerings, which include championship-level basketball and running teams, skateboarding, powwow dancing, and cultural clubs. These programs give students opportunities to develop leadership, confidence, and teamwork both on and off the field.
Additionally, our college counseling and alumni support system helps students prepare for life after graduation through mentorship, application assistance, and scholarships—ensuring we stay connected to our graduates long after they leave campus.
We are grateful to the dedicated staff, coaches, language instructors, and supporters who make this success possible—and especially thank you to the students for being part of our family!. Wóphila tȟáŋka, thank you for helping Maȟpíya Lúta continue to grow as a place where students thrive academically, culturally, and spiritually.
