Students were able to visit with college aerospace studies representatives, military members, and even House Representatives. Thank you to Coach Allen and Ms. Escoe for taking our students for this opportunity!

The Elementary Indian Ed club hosted a program titled “Understanding Regalia” presented by the Red Earth Foundation. The event featured Choctaw tribal member, Asa Samuel. We invited all grades, including middle school students, to attend. Mr. Samuel did a presentation of his Northern Straight Dance Regalia (clothing/attire) and described in detail the meaning, materials and personal significance of each of the pieces. He then did a dance demonstration. It was a great educational presentation that all the students and staff enjoyed.
