On Tuesday, October 18, 2005, Minneapolis Public Schools will host an
American Indian Community Forum. Attached is a flyer about the event. If
you have questions, please feel free to contact Tim Brown, director of
indian education, at (612) 668-0611.
The American Indian Community Forum will provide an opportunity for
American Indian families to share their thoughts and hear about the
district's plans for the 2005-06 school year. The event will include a
wall of hope activity, where community members are invited to write,
illustrate and share their hopes and visions of success for students.
The event will include a feast, drumming and dancing, and a raffle for
backpacks and school supplies. This event will be co-hosted by the
Little Earth Community Partnership and Eleanor Coleman, former associate
superintendent for Area B, which includes schools in the Central,
Longfellow, Near North, Nokomis, Phillips, Powderhorn and University
communities. These communities are home to a majority of American Indian
students attending Minneapolis Public Schools.
