On-Site Training

We come to your location and provide a comprehensive training session for all staff – administrators, teachers, aides, bus drivers, cafeteria personnel, etc.  Each staff person is equipped with skills that makes everyone an educator, regardless of their position.

Now there is a specialized training wherein all staff are equipped with skills to redirect youth misbehaviors so that discipline problems, suspensions and expulsions can be avoided.  A major step in reaching Native students is to accept that behavior resulting from fear of punishment does not and has not worked.  That is why other (alternative, different) consequences are needed with Native youth.

 

Parent Training

Parent Training – The Indian Way teaches parents and families how to be a positive influence to their children and help them achieve in school.  Parents don’t want their children to make the same mistakes they made, but they don’t know how to prevent it.  Our parent workshop teaches Indian parents easy, yet powerful, ways to help their children achieve in school.

This 2½ day training will help all Indian families (non-Indian as well).  Many Indian students are reading several years below grade level.  With this reading deficit, they get frustrated or angry, which often leads to being expelled or quitting school.  With training on Indian ways of teaching, all parents can help their children to quickly improve their reading skills.  Invest in your parents; teach them how to help their children and your school will quickly improve. 

 

Student Training

The key to ending school violence and drug use lies in the students themselves.  In spite of repeated advice and cautions from caring adults, the power of youthful peer pressure is just too strong for many young people to overcome.  We must accept this fact and focus on training students to become a powerful force for drug prevention.  We train teams of drug-free students who then become role-models for living the good life – the drug-free life!
