National Ribbon Skirt Day Observed at North Lambton Secondary School!
On Monday, January 5, 2026, North Lambton Secondary School proudly observed National Ribbon Skirt Day with a day of cultural learning and creativity. Melissa Monague from Kettle and Stony Point First Nation visited the school to share the importance and cultural significance of ribbon skirts and ribbon shirts.
Eight classes participated in four engaging learning sessions, where students explored the traditions behind these garments and their role in Indigenous identity and storytelling. With guidance from Mel Shone and Rose Wolfe, students had the unique opportunity to design and create their own ribbon skirts and shirts, bringing the teachings to life through hands-on experience.
This event was a meaningful celebration of Indigenous culture and an opportunity for students to deepen their understanding and appreciation of these traditions.

We’ve seen some misinformation circulating online surrounding the potential Dresden landfill and its relation to the Lambton Kent Composite School and we would like to clear up any confusion:
The Lambton Kent District School Board has absolutely no plans or intentions to close, move, or sell Lambton Kent Composite School (LKCS).
For more than 55 years, LKCS has been a cornerstone of the Dresden community—educating students from Dawn-Euphemia Public School, Zone Township Central School, Thamesville Area Public School, Dresden Area Central School, and beyond. It’s a school where tradition meets excellence, and we’re proud of the incredible opportunities it provides for our students.
We value the trust and support of our families and community. The best way to stay informed about LKDSB news and updates?

There are unique hosting opportunities coming up in the LKDSB International Education Program. We will welcome a group of 20 semester scholarship students from Brazil for semester 2, and we are looking for homestays in all LKDSB communities. These amazing young people have been granted a government scholarship and a chance of a lifetime to come and study in Canada. In September, we will also welcome 10 scholarship students from Spain, 20 more Brazilian scholarship students and school groups from different parts of the world. We are looking for hosts in all our communities. Have you considered welcoming an international student into your home?
Many, many thanks to the incredibly talented band at Northern Collegiate Institute & Vocational School, who serenaded the room tonight before the Organizational Meeting of the Board.

This isn't your old-school textbook learning! At John McGregor Secondary School, Grade 9 Tech (TAS1O) students are getting hands-on experience building a miniature, functioning electrical subdivision. They wired the whole thing—from the poles to the houses—and even used solar panels to power the lights! This is how LKDSB students are being prepared for the future: not just reading about concepts, but designing, building, and innovating. They are learning the critical-thinking and technical skills needed for tomorrow's world. #TechInLKDSB #MeaningfulLearning
