Lakewood Performing Arts Council

The Lakewood Performing Arts Council is the parent organization supporting instrumental music at Lakewood High School. LPAC offers support primarily through its fundraising activities, including the bingo program, which raises over $100,000 each year. It also provides catering at many events, organizes potlucks and bake sales, and gives administrative support to the instructional staff.

Membership

The LPAC membership consists of parents of current and former students. Each fall, LPAC solicits new and renewal memberships from students in band and orchestra. Membership is free, although prospective memebers are invited to make a donation at one of the following levels:

• Bronze, $100 or more
• Silver, $250 or more
• Gold, $500 or more
• Platinum, $1000 or more

Membership in LPAC offers an opportunity to support an important educational activity for students at Lakewood High School. Membership is also required for parents and family members who wish to participate in the bingo program, which raises money for all the instrumental music programs at LHS.

Meetings and Communication

LPAC meets on the second Tuesday of each month at 7:00pm at Lakewood High School. During these meetings, members review previous fundraisers and other activities and plan for upcoming events.

Each week, LPAC sends out an email newsletter with important information for parents and students as well as reminders of upcoming events. To subscribe to this service, create an account on the My Portal system.

Each year, members elect a board of five officers to oversee LPAC.
