I pray that it will be a time of blessing for all of you. May God keep you safe and may you be healthy. Let us walk and learn together as partners who are united by respect, friendship, and self-sacrifice. We are a community of hope marked by family bonds and deep friendships. Together let us put into practice what our Lakota and Catholic values teach us about bravery, generosity, and the many other virtues that give direction to our lives. Red Cloud High School succeeds when we keep our eyes focused on our mission of educating the whole person. Everything we do – classroom learning, study at home, sports and other activities, counseling, and participation in school events – contributes to the intellectual, physical, social, and spiritual growth of each student. Opportunities arise every day for knowing ourselves, our talents, and our possibilities for the future. Be attentive! Listen to your teachers at school and at home. Trust God speaking in you. Some learning comes from persons or places you expect, such as classrooms, while other opportunities for maturing as persons come from helping others, working hard in whatever you do, and acting responsibly. God will surprise you in ways you least expect! Our lives are greatly influenced by the choices we make. One choice is to be grateful despite the challenges we face. We receive every day from our Creator opportunities for learning and spiritual growth. Let us be grateful for them and for one another. I pray for you and your loved ones, your faculty and staff, and all who support Red Cloud in any way. You are surrounded by people who care about you and for you. As they are a blessing to you, may you be a blessing to them. Sincerely, Fr. George Winzenburg, S.J. President 4 SUPERINTENDENT’S MESSAGE Dear Parents/Guardians and Students: Thank you for choosing to be a part of the Red Cloud Indian School community. I hope that the 2011-2012 school year will be a great year for you. All communities have sets of principles, policies and procedures that guide day-to- day life, and Red Cloud High School is no exception. The Student/Parent Handbook serves as an agreement that the parents, guardians, and students make with our school regarding educational mission, philosophy, goals, policies, and rules. It is extremely important that you read this handbook so that you understand your responsibilities and rights as members of the Red Cloud Indian School community. Each year the administration and the Education Committee of the Board of Directors make revisions in the Student/Parent Handbook. I encourage you to read the entire handbook. Parent, guardian, and student input and involvement is welcome in the formation of educational mission, philosophy, goals, policies, and rules. Please feel free to contact members of the Education Committee or the school administration with your ideas. We appreciate your help and support in the education of your children! Let’s work together in the educational process to help form your children to be the leaders of tomorrow. Wakan Tanka Ni Yawaste yelo! Sincerely, Robert Brave Heart, Sr. Superintendent Red Cloud Indian School 5 1. HISTORY OF RED CLOUD INDIAN SCHOOL Red Cloud Indian School was established in 1888 as the Holy Rosary Mission. Founded by the Jesuits, it owes its origin to Chief Red Cloud, the leader of the Oglala Sioux tribe, who petitioned the government to permit the "Black robes" (Jesuits) to establish a school on the Pine Ridge Reservation. In 1969, Holy Rosary Mission School officially changed its name to Red Cloud Indian School. This was done out of respect for the man whose work had made it possible to found the school and, as importantly, to affirm that the school seeks to build up the local Native American community rather than serve as a vehicle of cultural imperialism. Today, Red Cloud Indian School continues that rich tradition – of being a Lakota, Catholic, and Jesuit school that serves the children of the Pine Ridge Reservation. 2. MISSION STATEMENT AND PHILOSOPY OF RCIS 2.1. THE MISSION STATEMENT OF RED CLOUD INDIAN SCHOOL The Mission of Red Cloud Indian School, a Catholic institution that is administered by the Jesuits and Lakota people, is to develop and grow as a vibrant Church, through an education of the mind and spirit that promotes Lakota and Catholic values. 2.2. THE PHILOSOPHY OF RED CLOUD INDIAN SCHOOL Red Cloud Indian School seeks the formation of Lakota youth as modeled by the person of Jesus Christ. In its spiritual mission, the school recognizes the profound spiritual values that exist within the traditions of the Lakota community and seeks the expression of those values. The school upholds a person’s worth in the sight of God, each individual’s moral responsibility, and the need for continual renewal and a change of heart – from selfish concerns to a spirit of generosity and the service of God by serving one another. The Red Cloud Indian School System recognizes that a student’s intellectual capabilities are not lessened because of poverty, culture, or circumstance. Just as the school seeks to challenge the student to spiritual growth, it also challenges the student to grow intellectually and realize his/her highest potential. In essence, Red Cloud Indian School aims to form young Lakota men and women of competence, character, and conscience, rooted in their Lakota culture and as modeled by Jesus Christ. The following beliefs guide our schools in fulfilling its mission: Concerning our students, we believe that: All of students are capable of learning. Students learn in different ways and at different rates. Therefore, our students will: Realize the role that their faith plays in their lives, Treasure their Lakota traditions and culture, Grow in knowledge of the Catholic faith, 6 Be discerning and critical learners, Become responsible adults who live independent and productive lives, And become motivated citizens who desire to serve the tribe, thirst for justice, and respect others. Concerning our teachers, we believe that they will: Possess an understanding of the Catholic faith and an appreciation of Lakota traditions and culture, Maintain high standards and have high expectations for all students, Strive to meet the individual needs of our students, and Be role models for learning and living. Concerning our school, we believe that we will be: Partners with parents/guardians in helping our students grow, Partners with the community and a resource for each other, Creating and utilizing real life learning situations for students, and Promoting standards that allow and require our students to demonstrate what they learn inside and outside the school. 3. EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES OF RED CLOUD INDIAN SCHOOL 3.1. SPIRITUAL The religious sensitivity of Red Cloud Indian School adds a distinctive quality to our community life. 1. The ideals of Lakota/Christian spiritual development and growth are to be emphasized in the general atmosphere of the school. Wisdom, courage, respect, and generosity, along with the other values flowing from Lakota tradition and Christianity are to be shown by all members of the Red Cloud community as they relate to each other on a daily basis. 2. Religion classes are to be a regular part of the curriculum at all levels, and each student is encouraged and guided in his or her own spiritual growth.

  • Plains Indians
    Your Name Keyboarding II xx Period Mr. Behling Current Date Plains Indians The American Plains Indians are among the best known of all Native Americans. These Indians played a significant role in shaping the history of the West. Some of the more noteworthy Plains Indians were Big Foot, Black Kettle, Crazy Horse, Red Cloud, Sitting Bull, and Spotted Tail. Big Foot Big Foot (?1825-1890) was also known as Spotted Elk. Born in the northern Great Plains, he eventually became a Minneconjou Teton Sioux chief. He was part of a tribal delegation that traveled to Washington, D. C., and worked to establish schools throughout the Sioux Territory. He was one of those massacred at Wounded Knee in December 1890 (Bowman, 1995, 63). Black Kettle Black Kettle (?1803-1868) was born near the Black Hills in present-day South Dakota. He was recognized as a Southern Cheyenne peace chief for his efforts to bring peace to the region. However, his attempts at accommodation were not successful, and his band was massacred at Sand Creek in 1864. Even though he continued to seek peace, he was killed with the remainder of his tribe in the Washita Valley of Oklahoma in 1868 (Bowman, 1995, 67). Crazy Horse Crazy Horse (?1842-1877) was also born near the Black Hills. His father was a medicine man; his mother was the sister of Spotted Tail. He was recognized as a skilled hunter and fighter. Crazy Horse believed he was immune from battle injury and took part in all the major Sioux battles to protect the Black Hills against white intrusion.

  • 1868 Chief Red Cloud and General William Tecumseh Sherman Sign the Fort Laramie Treaty, Which Brings an End to War Along the Bozeman Trail
    1868 Chief Red Cloud and General William Tecumseh Sherman sign the Fort Laramie Treaty, which brings an end to war along the Bozeman Trail. Under terms of the treaty, the United States agrees to abandon its forts along the Bozeman Trail and grant enormous parts of the Wyoming, Montana and Dakota Territories, including the Black Hills area, to the Lakota people as their exclusive territory. 1868 General Philip Sheridan sends Colonel George Armstrong Custer against the Cheyenne, with a plan to attack them during the winter when they are most vulnerable. Custer's troops locate a Cheyenne village on the Washita River in present-day Oklahoma. By a cruel coincidence, the village is home to Black Kettle and his people, the victims of the Sand Creek Massacre in 1864. Custer's cavalry attacks at dawn, killing more than 100 men, women and children, including Black Kettle. 1875 THE LAKOTA WAR A Senate commission meeting with Red Cloud and other Lakota chiefs to negotiate legal access for the miners rushing to the Black Hills offers to buy the region for $6 million. But the Lakota refuse to alter the terms of the 1868 Fort Laramie Treaty, and declare they will protect their lands from intruders if the government won't. 1876 Federal authorities order the Lakota chiefs to report to their reservations by January 31. Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse and others defiant of the American government refuse.General Philip Sheridan orders General George Crook, General Alfred Terry and Colonel John Gibbon to drive Sitting Bull and the other chiefs onto the reservation through a combined assault.

  • Chief Red Cloud's Speech
    Chief Red Cloud’s Speech Red Cloud was chief of the Oglala Teton Sioux. He was an important leader who opposed white incursions into Native American lives and territory, although he openly advocated peace whenever possible and did not support the more violent actions of Crazy Horse and his followers. Red Cloud was noted as a warrior and a speaker. In the excerpt below, he explains the plight of his—and indeed all—Native American peoples in the last decades of the 19th century. I will tell you the reason for the trouble. When we first made treaties with the Government, our old life and our old customs were about to end; the game on which we lived was disappearing; the whites were closing around us, and nothing remained for us but to adopt their ways,-the Government promised us all the means necessary to make our living out of the land, and to instruct us how to do it, and with abundant food to support us until we could take care of ourselves. We looked forward with hope to the time we could be as independent as the whites, and have a voice in the Government. The army officers could have helped better than anyone else but we were not left to them. An Indian Department was made with a large number of agents and other officials drawing large salaries-then came the beginning of trouble; these men took care of themselves but not of us. It was very hard to deal with the government through them- they could make more for themselves by keeping us back than by helping us forward.
