StowelTs 12-year dream becomes reality
A f - fl '.. I asissm ..III" "Jii ... '. ill I . . i . ii in n i ii
After 12 years' association and
friendship with the Confederated
Tribes, Cynthia Stowell's dream of
writing and publishing a book about
Warm Springs has become a real
ity. "Faces of a Reservation," which
contains written and photographic
essays of 32 tribal members and a
lengthy historical review, will be
available at bookstores after Sep
tember 1. Stowell was in Warm
Springs August 1 2 to present copies
of the book to those featured as
well as to Tribal Council.
In her speech at the Longhouse,
Stowell explained that "Faces of a
Reservation" is "not a textbook on
the history and contemporary sta
tus of the American Indian. It is an
intimate portrait of the Warm
Springs reservation... I have tried
to convey to others what a vital and
human place an Indian reservation
is while attempting to capture the
particular character and tone that
make Warm Springs special and
unique."
Stowell also stated that "even
though I have to a great extent let
52 people speak for themselves,
there's no question that "Faces of a
Reservation" reflects my experience
and my way of seeing things at
Warm Springs." Some, said Sto
well. may disagree with the way she
has interpreted different aspects,
but, she hopes readers will feel her
"love for Warm Springs coming
out from between every line."
"Faces of a Reservation"was pub
lished by the Oregon Historical
Society and will sell for $29.95 per
copy. Stowell added that if readers
Find serious discrepencies. they
should feel free to contact her for
corrections.

The Madras Junior High teach
ing staff will be implementing a
new program this year in an effort
to help students learn to approach
their classwork in a systematic way.
One of the biggest complaints
teachers have is that students forget
what their assignments are or leave
them in another folder in their
locker when they are to be brought
to class.
This year, students are being
asked to bring a two-inch three
ring notebook (binder) to school
that will carry all assignments for
all classes. In the past, students
often had a separate pee chee folder
for each class. Classroom teachers
will be monitoring each period that
students are bringing their note
books and are writingdown daily assign
ments on special assignment sheets
for later reference. Parents will
also be able to monitor what home
work assignments are to be com
pleted simply by asking to see that
days assignments sheet. Graded
papers from each class will also be
kept in the binder which will help
inform parents of their student's
work. To help keep the notebook

In October, teachers wiU have
the opportunity to participate in -i
monthly inservices that are designed
to assist them in better meeting the
educational needs of all students.
The "Effective Indian Education"
inservice program was developed
by The Northwest Regional Edu-
cation Laboratory and has been
used by Warm Springs Elementary
staff for the past two years.
By applying the results of over a
decade of effective school research,
and the latest in Indian educational
research, schools can use this pro
cess to set high standards, imple
ment quality schooling practices,
increase student achievement and
improve student social behavior.
The process focuses on school
improvement at the school build
ing level and uses the Effective
Practices in Indian Education mono
graphs as a suggested source for
solutions for improvement strate
gies. This compliments most teacher
improvement programs. The Jun
ior High staff will identify a goal,
plan and implement improvements
and the evaluate their results over a
four to five month period.
