November is Native American Heritage Month!
"The month is a time to celebrate rich and diverse cultures, traditions, and histories and to acknowledge the important contributions of Native people. Heritage Month is also an opportune time to educate the general public about tribes, to raise a general awareness about the unique challenges Native people have faced both historically and in the present, and the ways in which tribal citizens have worked to conquer these challenges." -

Teaching Native Students
The following list is a compilation from Native educators and researchers. Although generalized, Educators should be aware that:
- There is great diversity among Native nations, tribes, bands.
- Many students today who identify as Native may not “look Indian” and educators should reinforce their positive self-identity.
- Native students may have little or no Native cultural connection or knowledge of their tribe, culture or traditions.
- Native students from reservations may have more difficulty transitioning to urban schools.
- Specialists are available to review curriculum materials for accuracy and sensitivity
