Congratulations to our January Seven Grandfather Teachings Award Winners:
Debwewin- Truth- Turtle
Truth gives us the ability to act without regret. We must understand, speak, and feel the truth, while also honoring its power. Truth should not lead us to deceptions. We know who we are in our heart. By knowing that, we also know the truth. Our emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual gifts will guide each one of us in our journey.
Parents/Guardians: if your student failed a core course (English, Math, Science or Social Studies) and they are required to attend summer school in June our Indian Ed After School Program can help. Students can stay afterschool on Tuesdays, Wednesdays or Thursdays and work on making up their failed class OR they can get homework help to avoid failing semester 2 classes. We are here to help!!!! Licensed teachers and other staff members are available for homework and credit recovery help. Contact Patti DeGroat at 218-473-6183 for more information. Parent permission form is required to attend. Forms can be picked up in the HS office or emailed to you.
January Student of the Month
WOWE Indian Education and the Shooting Star Casino are sponsoring a show day for grades 7-12 We will be traveling to the Shooting Star Casino to watch the musical “Bear Grease” on Tuesday, March 12th.
Featuring an all-Indigenous cast, this hilarious twist on the 1978 classic, Grease, reimagines the beloved musical as culturally relevant with Indigenous humor and pride. Bear Grease is the brainchild of Crystle Lightning (Cree) and MC RedCloud (Huichol), a husband-and-wife hip-hop duo who go by the name LightningCloud.
The run time is 1.5 hours…. No Cost for students to attend. Parent permission MUST BE SIGNED in order to attend. *** No ISS or OSS (in school or out of school suspension) 2 weeks before the musical. ****
If you would like the full agenda or have any questions please contact Patti DeGroat at 218-473-6183 or pattid@waubun.k12.mn.us
