HS art students send valentines to veterans

Black River Falls High School art students aren't bearing cupid's traditional tools this Valentine's Day, instead choosing to spread the day's message armed with staplers and construction paper. 3D Design and three other high school art classes joined their teacher, Mary Perry, to create valentines for veterans at the Tomah Veterans Affairs Medical Center.

Perry, her students and aide Nancy Clemence aim to stuff the valentines baskets with treats before they are delivered to the Tomah VAMC.

District and Ho-Chunk Nation sign agreement

Memorandum of Understanding and Mutual Support addresses issues of mutual interest to the Ho-Chunk Nation and the School District of Black River Falls

The Ho-Chunk Nation and the School District of Black River Falls met in a cooperative effort to develop a plan to improve communication, relations and educational opportunities among Ho-Chunk students, teachers and their families and the Black River Falls School District.

Mediation assistance was provided by the U.S. Department of Justice Community Relations Service.

The Ho-Chunk Nation and the SDBRF came to the table with innovative ways of addressing the needs of Ho-Chunk students, improving communication and cultural relations within the school district for all parties involved.

“The (Black River Falls School) District wants to work with the Nation and to build a positive relationship,” said SDBRF Administrator Ronald Saari, “if we work and communicate together in a positive manner, we will be able to accomplish more.”
