March 03, 2020

As of March 3rd, 2020 you have supported ITEP to reach 53% of our $5,000 goal. Thank you!

 

March 3rd also carries a significant event in 1851 that has and still continues to impact our Tribal Nations, the Indian Appropriations Act. In efforts to supporting Indigenous teachers through crowdfunding we also support each other by informing ourselves of each others histories.  Feel free to see and read the following article, https://digitalcommons.law.ou.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1632&context=ailr

 

Also feel free to share other articles that would serve as resources with our ITEP family and community. This provides the opportunity to continue to expand our Indigenous knowledge that strengthens our ways to indigenize curriculum for our youth.

 

Respectfully,

Good afternoon!

 

On behalf of the ITEP we hope all is well. We have reached 28% of our goal and have about another 70% to go. Support our ITEP teachers and teacher candidates by contributing to our crowdfunding campaign. This provides our students and teachers access to our community knowledge holders, medicine peoples, and speakers of our Nations to strengthen and inform our ITEP educators ways of indigenizing curriculum.

 

Respectfully,
