🧡 **Celebrating Indigenous Peoples’ Day at Selfridge Public School!** 🧡 Monday October 12th

We are excited to welcome **Della No Heart and Kathy Froelich** to Selfridge Public School for a very special day of learning, sharing, and celebrating!

Throughout the day, Della and Kathy will be meeting with our students to discuss **Dakota Ways and Values**, giving students an opportunity to learn more about Dakota culture, traditions, respect, responsibility, community, and the values that continue to guide generations.

📚 Student Schedule
• Kindergarten: (8:00–9:00 AM - Classroom)
• Grades 1–2: (8:30–9:00 AM - Classroom)
• Grades 3–4 (9:00–9:45 AM - Classroom)
• Grades 5–6 (10:00–10:50 AM - Classroom)
• Grades 7–9 (12:00–1:00 PM - Commons)
• Grades 10–12 (1:00–2:00 PM - Commons)

This will be a wonderful opportunity for our students to **listen, learn, ask questions, and strengthen their connection to Dakota history, culture, and values**.

At Selfridge Public School, we believe learning goes far beyond the classroom. Days like this help our students better understand who they are, where they come from, and the importance of carrying cultural knowledge and values forward.

🧡 **We are honored to have Della No Heart and Kathy Froelich spend the day with our students. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, experiences, and Dakota teachings with the Selfridge School family!**

**Happy Indigenous Peoples’ Day!**

🧡🖤 **A DAY TO REMEMBER AT SELFRIDGE PUBLIC SCHOOL** 🖤🧡 (5th & 6th Grade)

Today was one of those days that reminds us **why we do what we do.**

We were honored to welcome **Ricky White** to Selfridge Public School for a powerful presentation built around a message that every student deserves to hear:

**EVERY CHILD MATTERS.**

Ricky spoke from the heart about **respect, belonging, understanding, kindness, and the responsibility we all have to make sure every child knows they are important.**

Our students, staff, families, and community members came together for **Every Child Matters March**. Walking side by side was a powerful reminder that we are stronger when we stand together for our children.

🧡 **Orange Shirt Day** is a day to honor Indigenous children who were forced to attend residential and boarding schools and to remember those who never returned home. The orange shirt represents the message that **“Every Child Matters”** and reminds us of the importance of truth, healing, respect, and making sure every child feels valued and supported.

Every child deserves to know:

🧡 **You are seen.**
🧡 **You are heard.**
🧡 **You are valued.**
🧡 **You belong.**
🧡 **You matter.**

Today wasn’t just another school activity. It was a chance to listen, reflect, come together, and remind our students that **they matter—not just today, but every single day.**

A heartfelt thank you to **Ricky White** for sharing your message with our students and staff, this was such a meaningful day.

**This is what school is about. This is what community is about. This is what family is about.**
