Kick Start through 4th-grade WOWE students recently enjoyed an exciting learning adventure at the School Forest, where they explored the Three Sisters Garden!
Next up, 5th and 6th graders will join in early November to learn about the “eldest sister” corn, with a special lesson from the White Earth Tribal College Extension Office on making corn mush!
We’re excited to continue these meaningful outdoor experiences at the School Forest!
End of Quarter 1 is Friday November 1st.
6 Days until our Mock Election on Tuesday, November 5th. Students can vote during breakfast and lunch on the stage. Voting ends at 2:00pm. Voting isn't just for the President but will include Senators, US Representatives, City Council, School Board and more. Our ballot will look just like the real city of Waubun ballot. Take the time to research all candidates. Everyone's vote is their own personal choice that we must respect. This is what makes Democracy a great thing!!!! Check your email for what the ballot will look like so you know who to research.

Yesterday Mr. Short's science classes and Indian Education attended a Netting Demo at the ReDiscovery center. Thank you to White Earth Natural Resources for helping to make events like this possible.
WOWE Indian Education sponsored a field trip for the 9th grade Civics class and the ALC students to the RBC today. Students got to tour the building and listen to many department representatives speak about their job duties, education, and experience. Maintenance, Enrollments, Education, Land, ICW, Youth, Marketing, Public Safety, Legal, Judicial, Natural Resources, Tribal Health, HR, Finance, Compliance, Admin and the Tribal Council all spoke to the students. The session wrapped up with the importance of voting and then some pizza. Tribal Chairman Michael Fairbanks along with Sec/Tr Michael LaRoque, District 1 Rep Henry Fox and District 3 Rep Laura Lee Erickson were all in attendance to speak about tribal government and all the important duties they have. It was a great way for students to see in person how government works and how each department works while all be connected to the people of White Earth.
Our 3rd grade students at Ogema Elementary learned about and recieved dictionaries from the DL Noon Rotary this week!
