Students and staff can log into a variety of digital services using one set of login credentials. This is known as RaiderID. RaiderID consists of your district-issued email address and a password.


The login can be used anywhere this RaiderID symbol is shown: 




An example of the format for student emails are as follows: 


25johsmith@lakotaschools.org

[last 2 digits of graduation year][first three initials of first name][last name]@lakotaschools.org


An example of the format for staff emails are as follows:

jsmith@lakotaschools.org

[first name initial][last name]@lakotaschools.org


*In some unique cases, a student or staff member's email address may be different from the format listed above.


If you are unsure of your password or can not remember, please click here. For security purposes, the Technology Department can not publish password formats.


The easiest way to access many district apps and programs is via Clever. Clever is our district's staff and student portal. To log into Clever, you will use your RaiderID. Once you are in Clever, you will have quick access to systems such as email, ProgressBook, FinalForms, etc.


To access Clever, visit our district website and look for the "Clever" logo near the top of the page.
