  1. Achieve scores of 3 or 4 on both the End-of-Grade reading and math tests.
  2. Pass local promotions standards- pass academic subjects on the report card.

Sacred Path

The Sacred Path program is a character education program developed to promote caring, responsibility, and respect for self and others while following traditional tribal beliefs. Each grade level meets to discuss issues that need to be addressed within the grade block and the school. Together they determine solutions to any problems that are addressed and work together to solve those problems. Students and teachers work together on the Sacred Path to make the school a safe place to learn.

 

Peacekeeper Pledge: We, the Peacekeepers, To-hi-I-yv-nv-ne-hi, promise to be respectful, truthful, and caring to all.

Parent's Corner

It is very important that your child be in school, on time everyday.  Nightly homework and reading is assigned weekly throughout the school year.  End-Of-Grade Testing will begin on May 12th and we cover important concepts to help prepare our students everyday. 

Many important learning experiences that take place in the classroom cannot be sent home on a worksheet, so attendance is critical.  Help and support at home make a huge difference in your child's performance and progress at school. 

Thanks as always for your support!
