Crow Agency Public School Christmas Program

🎄 Christmas Crafts at CAPs and Hardin Schools was a huge success! 🎄
A heartfelt thank you to all the amazing volunteers who served as Santa’s Elves and made sure everything ran smoothly. We are so grateful for the wonderful parents and guardians who brought their children to enjoy a joyful evening of crafting and holiday fun.
We were even visited by Santa Claus himself, who took time out of his busy schedule at the North Pole to greet the kids and take pictures! We wish we could share every single photo—there were so many magical moments.
✨ Happy Holidays to you all!
With warm wishes,
Tara and Leda

Our Hardin High School RISE (Resilience in Something Else) students, led by Janie Delp and Mrs. Jefferson, proudly facilitated this week’s statewide RISE meeting. They invited special guest Sydney Little Light, who shared inspiring messages with Native youth across Montana. During the meeting, Michele Henson, MPH, Tribal Student Achievement Specialist, also showcased the trailer for the documentary Undefeated, which features Sydney and her powerful story.
RISE, created by MT OPI during the pandemic, continues to foster connection, culture, and leadership among Native youth. Meeting biweekly, RISE provides opportunities such as leadership committees, youth panels, and a permanent youth seat on the MACIE board.
We are incredibly proud of our Hardin High School RISE leaders for representing their community with confidence, culture, and heart.

CAPS Literacy Night – Tuesday, December 16, 2025 | 5:30 PM at Crow Agency Public School
This month’s Literacy Night is extra special! Crow Agency Public School teachers and staff will lead families and community members in exploring Ammiláau, our dynamic e-learning platform that brings the Crow language to life. Developed with Crow educators, linguists, and community advocates and in partnership with Crow Language Consortium, The Language Conservancy, Little Big Horn College, and the Crow Tribe, Ammiláau combines recordings, images, dialogues, and expert guidance to help students connect with their language and culture. Now you can see it in action! This platform is made possible thanks to a generous grant from the U.S. Department of Education’s Native American and Alaska Native Children in School Program (NAM).
CAPS Literacy Night is part of the Ammaaleíéhkuua (“Place We Go for Knowledge”) Project, a five-year language revitalization initiative created through a grant written by Dr. Cummins during his time as Principal and the Language Consortium. This project strengthens the Apsáalooke dual-language immersion program through new curriculum, cultural picture books, proficiency assessments, and professional development for teachers and families.
Come see how Ammiláau brings our language and culture to life. See you there!

Crow Agency Public School Teachers Lead the Way!
During their holiday break, our dedicated teachers spent time training to implement Ammiláau, meaning “our language” in Crow (Apsáalooke).
Ammiláau is a dynamic e-learning platform that brings the Crow language to life. Developed in collaboration with Little Big Horn College, Crow educators, linguists, and community advocates, it draws on years of recordings, images, dialogues, and expert input to support learning both inside and outside the classroom. Some of our teachers are already using Ammiláau to help students connect with their language and culture. The platform is funded by a generous grant from the U.S. Department of Education’s Native American and Alaska Native Children in School Program (NAM).
Crow Agency Public School continues to build on the vision of the Ammaaleíéhkuua (“Place We Go for Knowledge”) Project, a five-year language revitalization initiative created through a grant written by Dr. Cummins during his time as Principal and the Language Consortium. This project strengthens the Apsáalooke dual-language immersion program by developing new curriculum, cultural picture books, proficiency assessments, and a digital learning platform. It also provides professional development and family literacy opportunities to support language growth across the community.
Teachers/Staff: Jennifer Bohlman, Cindy Bear Cloud, Dominica Bear Crane, April Chandler, Rochelle Deputy, Sunny Gardner, Nicolette Haleyalbung, Cherlee Iron House, Clarena Hugs, Lavonna Little Owl, Carrie Old Coyote, Jolauna Pickett, Ruby Peterson, Nicole Real Bird, Reva Not Afraid, Christina Turnsplenty, and Regina Yarlott. Facilitators: Amberly Howe & Bianka Rock Above
We are thrilled to bring these powerful resources into our classrooms to help keep our language strong, alive, and thriving for future generations. Thank you to our amazing educators for their dedication to our students, our culture, and our future. Special thanks to Crow Agency Public School Principal Sherry Foote for her continued support, and to our trainers Bob Rugh and Jamie Marquez-Bratcher of The Language Conservancy for guiding this learning experience.
