submitted by Laurene (Sue) Taylor
 
A total of $1,172.68 was raised by the students and staff of the Lac Courte Oreilles Ojibwe and Waadookodaading Schools in a recent "PENNIES FOR A CURE" drive. Shown here are the students in Mrs. Brenda Wisner's Fifth Grade class that raised the top amount for the entire school ($285.54). They earned a $50.00 cash prize for a party for the class. 

There is a special prize for the Pre-K class (Ms. Marchant), Kindergarten classes (Ms. Donaghue and Ms. Wergeland) as they raised a close $226.63. Other groups that won top honors include 8th Graders with $51.26, Sophomore class with $86.75, and Waadookodaading Pre-K and Kindergarten with $46.33.

"It is so heartwarming to see all the students and staff involved in such a worthwhile project", states Sue Taylor, project coordinator. A special Miigwech goes out to Linda Tennis, Terry Barber, Penny Beaulieu, Shannon Quaderer, and the staff at the LCO Federal Credit Union for all their help in transporting money and counting it for us.

LCO Ojibwe High School Students are out there creating their futures !

Lac Courte Oreilles Ojibwe High Students are out there creating their futures again! This time a group of Juniors and Seniors joined in the learning at Wisconsin Indianhead Technical College in Rice Lake.  Our students wanted to experience a day of collegiate life, complete with attending classes, dining in the cafeteria, checking out the library and dormitories, and even visiting homes being built by current WITC students.  With classes like Arc Welding, Machine Design, Web Programming, Cosmetology and Artificial Nails, and Business Management, and strong, knowledgeable instructors it's no wonder WITC is one of the top technical schools in the nation.

Be on the lookout for a sharply designed website advertising an expertly run beauty shop serving the finest manicured nails, with furniture and store layouts created by tribal members of the Lac Courte Oreilles Ojibwe--the future is in the making!

Today was one of many steps, and a fun one it was.


Chi Miigwech to the faculty and staff at WITC in Rice Lake, and our dedicated students at LCO High School!


Art Students at Potter's Shed

Creativity was the word for the day as 13 Gifted and Talented art students tried their hand at creating a sun catcher at the Shell Lake Potter's Shed. Under the directions of Mary Kay, the students chose glass pieces to make various designs.  Students also, went in search of the "Fairy Doors" throughout the facility.  Attending with the students was art instructor Brenda Wisner and Gifted and Talented Director/Teacher Laurene Taylor.
