Throughout November, Seattle Public Schools celebrate American Indian Heritage Month as an opportunity to celebrate the rich and diverse cultures, traditions, histories and acknowledge the important contributions of America's first peoples. There are 29 federally recognized Native American tribes in Washington state.
At Broadview-Thomson K-8, school nurse Cass Wheelock-Rowse, Cree/Cherokee/Choctaw, lead the creation of an art display that includes a canoe with paddles that include the names of the 29 federally recognized Native American tribes of Washington state and photos from recent Northwest Tribal Canoe Journeys. Canoe Journeys are a celebrated annual event in which participants travel in ocean-going canoes across hundreds of miles to visit indigenous and local communities to honor and share tribal culture and traditions.
Seattle Public Schools recognizes and honors the important contributions to our communities made by our local, state and country's indigenous peoples. Approximately 2,000 people in the Seattle Public Schools community identify as Native American/Alaskan Native – from students and teachers to principals and associate principals.
