Imagine what Indian-ed programs could do with funding By percentage, the number of Indian students in the Cascade County public schools is slightly below the statewide average. But in raw numbers, schools here are attended by more students of Native American heritage -- about 1,200 -- than the reservation schools of Browning, Rocky Boy's, Harlem or Poplar. In fact, that 1,200 represents a significant portion of the Indian students statewide -- about 7.5 percent. That alone would justify making Indian history, culture and language a part of the local schools' curriculum. http://www.greatfallstribune.com/news/stories/20011211/opinion/1303545.html |
