OverviewIn 2018, I accepted a job in a remote area of the Pacific Coast in Washington State, at a public elementary school -- a place where the majority of the student population hailed from the nearby Quinault Indian Nation. After a decade in the classroom, I felt ready for the challenge. After all, good teaching is good teaching, right? What I experienced during my 3-year tenure challenged my beliefs about education. My struggles in the classroom led me to explore the issues surrounding Native education in the United States: the structure and context of federally mandated testing, absenteeism, cultural imperatives, the loss of tribal language, hate crimes, and the impact of self-governance on tribes. What I learned changed my worldview. It can change yours too.
