Ikks-Mi-Yunus-Ma-Mi-Pi-Um Powwow celebrates children
"Ikks-Mi-Yunus-Ma-Mi-Pi-Um," Little Children's
Powwow was held May 30, 1997 at the Agency Longhouse.
Powwow started with Grand Entry prior to Invocation. An
Intertribal dance was performed, then the little girls danced
the butterfly dance. The little boys did the sneak up dance.
In appreciation for their help in their child's classroom
parents received gifts from the Head Start teachers and
children.
The children gathered to do the Upi-Upi dance, three round
dances and an Eel dance before the powwow concluded.
During the powwow a special gift was presented to Winona
Frank in recognition of her recent accomplishment. She was
nominated and chosen, Teacher of the Year at the Oregon
Indian Education Association conference held in Portland,
Oregon. She also has a chance to become Teacher of the Year
at the National Indian Education Association in Tacoma,
Washington November 2-6, 1997.
Frank's was nominated by the Education Committee and
Johnson' O Malley Committee. She has been a teacher for the
Head Start Program since 1967, since Head Start came to be.
Bernice Mitchell remembers when she worked with Frank
at the Community Center Head Start classrooms, before the
new building. Mitchell quoted Frank, "I will never become a
teacher." But she continued to teach the Head Start classrooms
and enjoyed it. In 1992 she received her CDA to teach.
Mitchell remembers, "she was so proud of herself."
The Head Start teachers bought her a Pendleton coat in
appreciation of all her years as a Head Start teacher and to
recosr.izs her award for Teacher of the Year.
