school two years ago,
communications between the
school faculty and Indian
community were less than
desirable. Much misunderstanding
and lack of available funding in
the small district contributed to
the problems. Students leaving
the school and entering Junior
High in Shelton generally
experienced difficulty
academically and were not likely
to complete high school. This still
is a major problem.
"An active JOM committee
was formed last year, but was
unable to obtain sufficient JOM
funds and programs for any
appreciable success. The current
year found almost a complete
turnover in school faculty.
Difficulties arose at the start of
the year with supplies arriving late
and lack of continuity in the
administration. At the present
time the administration is
functioning smoothly and
planned JOM programs are being
put into operation.
"A detailed visit to the school
was not accomplished due to time
limitations. Generally the climate
was good.
"The teachers aides have won
praise from school faculty, school
board and tribal people for their
efforts in working with the
children. The Kindergarten
program was operating smoothly
and seemed to be a well-structured
program. Local persons present
were obviously proud of what has
been accomplished this year.
Communications between tribe,
school and community have
increased tremendously. While
much more can be accomplished at
Kamilche, the school board
member stated this was the most
parental involvement and
community involvement he had
ever seen in the school. There was
no doubt on the part of any of
the persons present that the JOM
program was working effectively,
contributing much to the
education of Indian youngsters at
Kamilche.
"If no funds were available
there is no question there would
be a decline in the effectiveness of
the school program at Kamilche.
JOM is providing assistance for
programs that would no}
otherwise exist. The present high
interest and involvement of
parents and community in the
school would not continue. It is
likely the stimulation of interest
in education for adults as well as
children would decrease. Lessened
attendance of adults at GED (16)
part of Canada is still cold and
bare they are enjoying the
sunshine and the beautiful green
scenery.
Well folks, the carnival at the
Pioneer school May 1 was a huge
success, the work and efforts put
forth by the students was
outstanding and we all commend
you for everything you did in
helping to raise this much needed
funds. A big thank you to the
faculty and parents as well as
friends for their work and effort in
getting the donations which made
this carnival a success.

funds at Kamilche would be a
serious blow to the community
with the students receiving the
full impact. They would suffer
from the lack of teacher aides,
materials and transportation.
Parental involvement which plays
a most important role in the
success of education of
youngsters would most certainly
revert back to the previous
condition.
"However if more JOM funds
were available more teacher aides
could be employed and better
facilities, transportation, materials
and supplies would be available
for the Indian students. Greater
parental su'pport as well as
community involvement would
result.
Commenting on the report,
principal Johann Mak states, "If
the community will get involved
and cooperate even more than it
did this year, I am convinced, that
we: Mrs. Haley, Miss Anderson,
Mrs. Hopp, Mrs. Krise, Mrs. Ivans,
and I can do an even better job
for the benefit of our students.
not be a place, where the faculty
decide how to behave, thou shalt

make out of individuals copies of
ourselves, but a place, where they
(while growing up) are educated
by human-beings to become
personalities, with a self-image
and an ability to educate
themselves.
"The school~ being a place
where many children are, should
be a place where many parents
come, to assist with the education
of their own children.
