Today is Native American Day



While most of the nation celebrates Columbus Day today, South Dakota has celebrated Native American Day since 1990.

I was married by a Pueblo Federal Judge in Santa Fe, New Mexico.  His request after the ceremony, which was performed in his chambers during a break in a murder trial, was to donate to this organization. We have been doing this since 2003.

The Lakota boys and girls learn about their Lakota (Sioux) culture at St. Joseph’s Indian School every day - not just on Native American Day!

Students take a Native American Studies class and learn the Lakota language as part of their regular curriculum.

St. Joseph’s Indian School, an apostolate of the Congregation of the Priests of the Sacred Heart, partners with Native American children and families to educate for life, mind, body, heart and spirit.  St. Joseph’s Indian School is a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization.
