The LCO Ojibwe School is currently teaching through virtual learning due to the Covid-19 increase in cases over the summer, but according to an announcement by school director, Jessica "Hutch" Hutchison, they will be resuming in-person classes on Monday, September 21.
As is done at the beginning of school each year, a Feather Pole Raising Ceremony was held on Monday, Sep 14.
Jason Schlender emceed the event and explained that the spirit pole goes up to reach out to spirits and they watch over us.
