ABSTRACTAs an appendix to "Evaluation of White Shield School,

Roseglen, North Dakota. Part A ", August 1974, this documentsubstantiated findings of an evaluation team. A brief on-sitevisitation report stated that students wanted more flexible courserequirements and firmer student discipline; teachers wanted moreauthority clarification on discipline (Bureau of Indian Affairs orschool district); parents wanted a school program evaluation,relative to Indian student dropout and failure; and school boardmembers wanted wider offerings in extra curricular activities andspecial courses that would relate positively to the Indian segment ofthe student population. Findings substantiated the emphasis given inthis study to Indian student failures, dropout causes, and alienation,justifying the initial Indian parent concern. Included are blankquestionnaires for determining the extent of school communityrelations, parents' rights, and information about school boardmeetings; copies of comparative contracts and budgets; letters;minutes (a meeting on school consolidation); individual parentreports; student disciplinary rules; memorandums; etc. (JC)

DISCIPLINARY POLICY

To the Students of the White Shield School:

69

Whet, two or more people are brought together, vhether in work or play,an individual will discover that the presence of others imposes some limit-ation upon his own activities. In order to promote harmonious relationsamong the people involved, it therefore becomes necessary to have some rulesand policies. These rules and policies will eiffer with the nature and intentof the activity; thus a basketball game would operate by a different set ofrules than would a classroom, and a supermarket would differ in operation froma achool. Wn feel that the students are entitled to and that the parents havethe right to expect that tha school atmosphere rill be morally uplifting and

educationally stimulating. We feel that the students should be able to enjoya school envirorment that allows security from physical harm or mental abuse,and one that contributes to their emotional health and vitality.

We submit therefore the following behavior guidelines that we hole willfacilitate physical security, educational growth and emotional wall, being.We hope that you will see these guidelines as something that may promote yourown educational objectives and that you will cooperate in making them a partof your school.

The below listed are considered serious violations of behavior requirements

1. Physical abuse of persons or property

2. .Profane, insinuative language or gestures

3. Defiance of authority,

Doltanro ..E o:bog-icy is being defined as the refusal on the part of am.Adent to comply with any reasonable' request' ou the part of a school employee.In the classroom a reasonable request wpuld be one that facilitates instruc-tion or normal elaseruom psuccdure in some way. Yxdople: asking a studentto sit dove, be quiet, leave quietly etc. On the buses, a reasonable requestwould be one that facilitates passenger safety,isr good driving environment.Whatever the request, it would be assumed that the request was both possibleand desirable in terms of the circumstanees at that time.

4.- Smoking, using intoxicants or hallucinatory drugs on the schoolgrounds, or at school related activities off campus.

70

BSI COM NNW

Students whose behavior can he describes by any of Items 1-4 may beeligible for hmmediate suspension. The following procedure will be followed:

1. At. the discretion of the teacher, the student will be referredto the office.

2. The facts of the incident will tic determined.3. A letter u;11 be sent home to the student's parent or guardian,

describing th. reason for being referred to the office.4. The policy as related to the incident will be fully explained

to the student.5. The incident will be recorded.6. Where circumstances warrant, the student will be immediately suspended

and t,- ;Len how., and a letter vill be hand delivered to the parent.(This would be the most likely consequence where profanity and verbalabuse lb directed tt..ard a school employee, or where the use ofdrugs end intxic:Ints is involved.

6. IThi.:re immediate susprAlinn is not the consequence, the student willbe returned to class after he has agreed that there will not be arepetition of this typo -4 misbehavior.

Subject: Non-payment of Tuition to The Ziegler School District

About three weeks ago I was informed that the school board ofthe Ziegler School District received a notification from the State Educa-tion Department at Bismarck that the Tuition payment for the Elementarygrade children attending the Eastern Segment School from the school districtshad been turned down. This is the payment of $75 per pupil which comesfrom the County 10-Mill Levy. The payment is based on the attendance ofthe school children from the various districts on the basis of theirattendance last yeRr. Since the Ziegler School District counted on thispayment to pay teacher salaries and other expenses, the outcome would be adeficit and consequently appeared to be rather serious.

Immediately I got in contact with the school board of the ZiegierSchool District and informed them that I was going to Dickinson on a WagdBoard Survey and that I could drop in at Bismarck to get more informationas to the reason for their refusal to approve the payment of this tuition.Last week I dropped in at Bismarck and I learned from 2r. Snortland that thereason that he had not approved the request was due to the fact that thetotal enrollment figures were given. He had in mind that the figure forthe white children alone should be given. I had with me the Agreementsof the various districts with the Ziegler School District and the enrollmentfigures of Indian children and white children. After analyzing.the finan-cial situation for the Ziegler School District, both taRey and SnortiaLd

the conclusion that the State Education Department would approveA the payment of the tuition of the white children. This was not a commitmentarid they further stated that they would like to have the situation reviewed1.t

with Mr. Peterson before making any commitment. On my part, I was there:f only to get information and to bring information to the Ziegler School Board

and,' therefore, was in no position to make any statement committing the,Board. However, the payment of tuition for white children would be suf-

-'.ficient to meet the deficit.

Mr. Lelloy thenaz4:ed ree if we nad copies of the ie:rec..lent and I said the.t we had. Lastgonday, I sent him a copy of the Agreee4ent and a copy of the minutes ofthe moetin,; t. Sit WAS held in Biemarck which formed the basis for thearranent under which the 2iczler 3Chool District is operating in conjunction vr!th the Indian Service in furnishing financial support for theEastern Segment School.

Apparently the State Education Department had misplaced theircopy of the Agree.ecnt. then they now nnv. received a copy of the Agreementand tte minutee, they sheul4 be set aright in their understanding as tohow the necler Scheel District operates. Along with this mewrandum,am sending the Aberdeen Office a copy of the Agreement as well a: a cony'of the ninutes. r believe that when the State ridneation Department rev:.ewsthe Lrrt-r1-:::t ftn:i the minutes, this matter :mould be cleared up and thepayment of the tuition should then follow.

After my return frcn Bismarck, I met with the Ziegler DistrictBoard and t;eve to thea a revert of the meAing and stated that I was sendin to the State Lducation Department a cop of the Agreement and theMinutes.

Tn response to a request for assistance with a school program evalua-

tion process by the White Shield community representatives through

their Tribal Education Camnittee, the initial developmental work was

be9uri April 18-19, 1974, by the Division AC Program Review and Eval-

uatwn (131A) of Albuquerque, New Mexico. A representative of the

Pwlluation Division conducted an on-site visitation to observe and

confer with k:chool officials that includcd the Aberdeen Area Mice,

Fort Berthold Agency in Newtown, North Dakota, and the White Shield

School nIministrators. In addition to conferring with school offi-

cial!.1, mambers of various community organizations included were:

l'arent/Student Committee, Tribal. Education Committee, White Shield

nunity, Title I and Title IV Committees, student body representa-

tives, and the school teaches staff (See Appendix A for listing).

V.,.ring the two-day visit by Dr. Eugene Leitka, the groups mentioned

Idif;lc.: given the opportunity to suggest and recommend what should be

included in the White Shield School evaluation. COmmants contributed

0.;re utilized to form the general parameters of the evaluation that

included:

(1) Community-School Relations

(2) Curricula improvement

(3) Instructional Program

-2-

(4) Student Failure

(5) Student Dropout Rate

(6) Title Programs Effectiveness

(7) Equal Representation of Indianson School Board

(8) Examination of Co-Op AgrementBetween BIA and District No. 85

Fort Berthold Amci

Agency response to the visit provided some information related to the

causal factors underlying the problems that came to surface at White

Shield. As reported, there Lave been, in the past, problems arising

periodically as the connunity adjusted to a new administration at the

school. People in the ccnmunity have also had to make new adjustments

from being dislocated from their original hamesites to new homesites

because of a construction of a dam that placed much of their property

under water. The relocation of these families paced many of then out

of their original nucleus clansnenship or out of an area of kinship

environment. The dispersement of families, friends, kinship, and clan

relations has had a disorienting effect upon a segmPnt of the population

that has sporadically given rise to a degree of discontentment and

incohesiveness wrong the residents in and around White Shield community

Outside Agitators

Reports point out problems or unrest in the community also stemming from

"outsiders" coming in to "stir up trouble." No reports were given as

to who those "outsiders" night be, lout nevertheless, they have had some

impact upon sane members-of the community.

Student Rights

The question of students' constitutional rights and the violations ofthen were mentioned as a possible source for sane of the problem.It is not being suggested here that time rights of the students wereviolated. It was only mentioned that this could be one of the issuesfacing the school system. There seers tr be variety of questions thatrelate to whether the school administration should adhere to guidelinesestablished by BIA or those by the State and the school district.Obviously, clarifications along these 1L-tes wire a necessity, if notthe greatest inportance.

Jurisdictional Boundaries

There exists sane legal questions concerning district boundaries thatencompass parts of the Indian reservation(s) in, near, and around theWhite Shield School District. It was mentioned by Agency Personnelthat this particular wr may have to be referred to the Solicitorfor clarification. The districting problan seem to affect the ques-tion of school board representation on the part of Indian people.

Tribal Education Cartnittee

A representative from the Tribal Education ttee, quite enphati-cally, pointed to the Principal of the White Shield School as the cen-tral figure in the problems at the school. The problem arising outof the school was not necessarily the result of inefficiency but thelack of administering the school on a cooperative basis, as the agree-merit anent so specifies. As reported, the principal adheres only to

those guidelines set forth by District No. 85 and those establishedby BIA for the Indians were ignored. The report went on to say thatIndian students awe expelled with complete disregard of BIA guide-

lines that protect Indians. The Cannittee number went on to statethat the current Indian members on the school board have no childrenof their catin in the school, consequently, could not care very muchabout the school program or represent the true feelings of the parentsin the carne pity.

School Board Election

Various sources reported that school board elections were climaxed

with scare tactics being utilized. Reports point out that BIA employ-

ees at the school were intimidated to vote against "our All-IndianSchool Board." They were headed for an eventual termination and thatthe school would become a public school and they would lose their civilserrice status. Several Indians voted against an all-Indian Board forfear of losing their jobs.

Teacher Qualification

The Tribal Education Ccannittee member also mentioned that there are saneteachers at White Shield who are teaching elementary and have a degreein sane other field. As an example, a Physical Education major is teach-ing elementary. The evaluation should include an examination of teacherqualifications and their assignments.

The Camtittee member also reported sane issues arising out of the admin-istration of Title I funds. Re felt that the Indians were used as a

"rubber stamp" to get funds. The Indiana never knem bow the money

was spent, or, for what it vats pent. The school administrator

should report to the people as to haw, why, and far what the =nicksare spent.

Indian liwolvement

"We as told," as related by the Education Oconittee matter, "to getinvolved in school and comminity affairs and when we do, we are told,we can't do this, we can't do that. This becomes very confusing formost Indians in the city. As a result, maw of the parents dr-not take interest over things they feel they have no control.

WHITE SHIELD OOMMNIUY

Approximately 16 persons were present at this meeting with the CCIIIMII-

nity representatives Included chairpersons of other organizations and

school oriented crannittees. A school board member was also present

(See Appendix A).

School Problems

As related, the problems that become acute and emerge as problems begin

or arise out of the failure of the school administrator to solve them

through conferring with the school board and with parents.

Several persons agreed that young people who have attended White Shield

have experienced early failure in college. The parents felt the high

school program and teachers did not prepare the young people adequately

to remain or even enter college. Three parents reported they do not

let their children attend White Shield because they are afraid they willnot get a good background. One year, as reported, 48 school children

from White Shield cxunnunity attended school elsewhere because the parents

and the children felt they were not welcomed at their own canmanity

school. The following is, in part, cxxtroants made by an Indian School

member.

"Couple of years ago, we set up our own school board(all Indian) and somebody along the line played poli-tics and our own Indian People knocked down our IndianSchool Board during the last election."

"The Indians got to the point now that they don't careabout things going on in this community because theycan't do anything about them. I feel the old styleIndian school were much better than what we have now..."

-7-

"The school administrator and the Title IV Ccemdt-tee worked on a proposal and cavieted it but theadministrator sent it in too late and we lost thou-sands of doll= that we could have used to improvethe program at this school. We heard that theSuperintendent had said, .'If the program under TitleIV doesn't include non-Indians, then, I don't wantit at our school.' The Board approved it bat it ;astoo late in arriving in D. C. We feel that it wasdone purposely. The Indians (168) outnurber thenon-Indians (117) at this school and the specialhelp they could have gotten tarn Title IV scold havereally been helpful for the Indian students and thewhole school. Many parents are sending their chil-dren to other schools when we have one in the can-munity... This is not right at all."

Other parents reported driving 30 miles, one vey, to other schools

because they felt White Shield could not offer the background theirchildren needed. Many felt the teacher attitude at White Shield

toward Indians me damaging to the future of the students who were

in high school, because their grades are in when they attempt

to enroll in a college.

Ninny felt an evaluation should include the Administration of the Title

Programa and Their Objectives along with the Parent Council involve-ment. It was felt that the Title Programs have been ineffective isms-

far as what they were intended to do.

Scent Discipline

According to sane of the parents, the school administration favors the

teachers in situations where students could be right. Students view-

points are ignorer and teachers (Bane) have habits of making the stu-dents feel ignorant or worthless. Coe parent said her kids didn't

'arm what prejudice was until they enrolled in White Shield School

because they had been away fran the conmunity working in another

state.

LanaLibrary rules appear to be too restrictive from the viewpoints ofparents. Children are only allowed books that are thought to be intheir grade level and they cannot check out anything else beyondthat. Students are made to wash their hands before using librarybooks. If a student has a book overdue or loses a book, his gradelevel drops.

Counseling

Parents reported that to get counseling for their children, they firsthad to go to the Superintendent and that he had to clear all counsel-ing conducted by the counselor. The counselor had told a parent, "I

just can't counsel any student, I must go through Mr. Bicknese." A

particular problem facing an Indian student concerned a teacher so theteacher had already had signatures of witnesses so "my boy and myself

didn't have nat.111 of a chance."

Review Panel

A panel of teachers, referred to as "Review Board" by the parents,

exist in the school but they don't know who is on this board. This

panel is given the duties of reviewing discipline cases and submitsrecarowndations whether a student should be suspended, expelled orwhat other disciplinary Treasure should be imposed.

-9-

The reports went on to point out that in many situations, when it

caws to handling discipline cases and other matters pertaining to

the school, the Superintendent uses the District to fight BIA and

if he needs to fight the district, he uses am.

Self - esteem

It was believed that most Indian enployees at the school, who are

cooks, janitors, and other less than professional positions, had a

very l morale and had a negative self-image. Students too, are

believed to be experiencing this because there is a lack of enough

models in the school. Parents also believed that courses that would

offer image building for the Indian students is highly desireable.

Contracting

A school board nutter (Indian) stated: "S% may want to evaluate in

tat of contracting or funding through other measures for the school

to move toward Indian control. As long as the person who is admin-

istering the school is in there... he is in =rend and we can't do

anything. They tell us to get involved and when ust try, they don't

listen to us." Earlier in the year, it was reported that a resolution

was drawn up that outlined possible alternatives directed to cords

contracting but a petition opposing it was circulated and the interest

diminished.

Hiring Practices,

When teaching positions banana available, they are, "never announced

officially," as reported by the comity representatives. The un

BEST COPY IBIARABLE

announced positions are filled with people the administration kmwsand wants to hire. The ammunity people report that the districtis slowly taking over the positions in the school. "The cafeteriais slowly slipping over to the district."

Student Viewpoints

Student viewpoints on the evaluation of the school were !tore directlyrelated to the curricula. It was a consensus agreement that in saneclasses, discipline or behavior problems definitely deterred teachersfran being effective and students film getting much benefit fran theclasses. One particular class was pointed out as a reference in whichall students agreed that discipline problems did exist. A more flexi-ble course requirements is particularly in Hare Econanics. The girlsthought they should be allated to enroll in courses that would be muchmore relevant to their career pursuit and be able to take sane coursesthrough correspondeace. Syeech Coursets were suggested to be in demand.

Majority of those present thought a good speech program was neededbecause they felt they were not getting the background they will needin college. EtIglish Theme Wry was also considered a must for allhigh school Juniors and Seniors. They felt that these areas were pre-requisities to passing the Freshmen year in college.

Indian students felt they needed more exposure to outside skills, trades,professions, and other educational opportunities so that they could bet-ter decide what they would like to do as a career. They felt theiraspirations were at a law level because of being isolated.

VAC= WATT

A need, pointed out by the staff, is an enforcemt of the disciplineprnblems in school. The staff believed that outside forces were

influencing the Indian People in the caanunity, including students.to cause the unrest. Majority of the teachers, that en:tressed theiropinions said they always had a good lorking relationships with parentsand other calamity people. Pet of them said a clarification wasneeded relative to student rights and responsibilities in the ;eliteShield School system. Many teachers felt there were no better schzalsnearby in teens of facilities and instructional program for the students.Sane teachers believed a liaison person to work between the calamityand the school was needed to facilitate camlunications and to help bothsides to have a better understanding of the school progran and theoarasunity needs.

Attendance was thought to be a factor in determining low grades forwee of the students. Too many absences and no make-up work caused

grades to drop.

A course on American Indian was offered at White Shield but there wasa lack of interest on the part of Indian students and the course wasdiscontinued.

-12-

SCHOOL BOARD

The general feeling among school board members was that the evalua-

tion should include all students and the total program that it not

be directed a certain ethnic group or a certain aspect of the total

program. The board members were aware that the Indian people have

asked continuously for Indian related courses as an enrichment.

Board members also agreed that the Indian people have also asked for

equal representation on the school board. They have elected Phil Ross

(Indian) and Mr. Shatler (non-Indian) who is married to an Indian.

The Indian people thought Mr. Shatler would represent than as well as

any other Indian. District planning was to have sub-divided the

Sigler Township in order to create more representatives for the 'Indians

but the division process never materialized. The local people, as

related by the board members, would like +ale school to retain as it is,under cooperative agreement plan. If `,see school should =Text back to

BIA, there would be many non-Indian students who would have to ride the

bus 60 miles a day. Nearby schools would be at Garriwn and Parshall.

Board members agreed that friction does not sew to be among the students

but usually is generated by the parents.

One board member was concerned with alternative activities for students

who do not possess the ability to join argeraized athletic programs. Itwas felt these students are deprived of extra curricular activities simply

because they were not "good enough" to make a ball team for the school.

Particularly, the girls were thought to be lacking alternative optionsto participate.

INDIVIDUAL PAREff PERM'

This individual parent made =tram efforts to being heard relativeto problems that had been encountered by his family with the WhiteShield School system It was felt that a great part of his itsshould be related here in order for the evaluators to determine forthemselves whether this is an example of what to expect or that itcould be an isolated problem everienced by one individual family.

"I have a boy in school in White Shield and hehas been failing in school according to his lasttwo report cards. Be can read but they tell himat school he cant read. We tried to get extrahal,p for him at school but we never could get itfor him. ft daughter got an 21 on a report cardand she wanted to make it up but they wouldn'tlet her. She was an honor student before all ofthis happened to her... that teacher is gone now.Indian students just do not get the help theyneed from the teachers. I have often expressedto the school people that if they don't likeIndians they should not be here. I also havereasons to believe that money is being mis-usedunder the Title Programs. They never informedthe people for what and how much =na was spent.I feel that there are Indian teachers at thisschool who will not help the Indians. I believemany parents know that teachers ignore the helpneeded by the Indian students. Problems aretaken to the principal and then taken to theAgency in New Town and nothing is ever doneabout them. n

N,117)1JCATION RESOUij$ C,

This is a request for assistance in the area of school Evaluation. Thelocal 'grass roots' people at White Shield have demanded that au evaluationbe conducted at their school. This is because of high failures amongthe Indian students and other problems at the school. Thus, the TribalEducation Committee of the Three Affiliated Tribes is responding and isinvolved in arranging the above. At this time, we are seeking your inputand qualified evaluators to be part of a team that w.11 conduct an on-siteevaluation next month.

By way of explanation, the White Shield Bureau of Indian Affairs school isrun by the local non-Indian District School Board # 85 by a "Co-operativeAgreement." The enrollment is near 300, one half of which are Arickara, Hidatsaand Mandan Indian students.

Furthermore, last year, due to local politics and pressure, the local IndianAdvisory Board was abolished (existence - 7 months). The local people weretold that they would eventually be terminated from the Bureau of IndianAffairs if they went along with the Indian Board. Also, the local IndianBIA employees feared for their 'benefits.' On top of this was the localnon-Indians who wanted to retain control. Finally, there was a petitionand resultant referendum which the Tribal Education Committee sanctioned at thattime. The vote abolished the Board 40 to 26 (less than 'l the eligible voter).In summary, through misinformation on the part of the people and their leaders-with a little push by the local non-Indians, we have another case of "selfdetermination" - in reverse.

Other background information is enclosed which will bring you up to date onthis years' activities and results. Also, it may give you further insightinto the every day life of the community and students at White Shield.

The local BIA education staff are moving with their customary routinespeed and have yet to react to the above concerns voiced (see attached Feb.12 school board meeting) by the Indian community and students. In addition,the Tribal Education Committee has also contacted the BIA CommissionerThompson (Senators, et al) on the above system, but to this date we havenot recieved a reply.

-30-IIEST COP'f AVAILABLE

One month ago, the Tribe/ Education Committee brought in professionalonsultants to make up a study about "Attitutudes and Organizational Climate"for the White Shield School. This study is designed to assess the climateof the school as it relates to students, parents, school personnel, and thecommunity. At the March 12 School Board meeting, we (Tribal Education,consultants, Indian people) presented the study. The White Shield SchoolBoard approved it at that time. However, with a clause that it was subjectto BIA approval. The reasoning behind the research instrument is that wecould have factual data. Also, it would be an excellent reference forthe Evaluation Team who would be selected.

Now, at this time, the local BIA (Principal, Education Program Officer, etc)are presently "studying" the research instrument to see if it meets their"criteria" and dis/approval. However, working through the red tape, and thebureaucracy takes it's toll on human costs, patience, and time. It was hopedthat this study would have been completed in March. Naturally, the entirecost(s) of the above has to be footed by the Tribal Education Committeesince the District or local BIA evidently don't see the need for saidevaluation since they are contributing no funds to the project.

Finally, we are in the need of good education evaluators. Preferable wouldbe people with experience in native American or bi-cultural education. %helocal District and BIA are looking to the State Department of PublicInstruction for assistance. We do not object to this. Yet, it-seems evidentthat if they had expertise and an effective system, we would not be havingthis high failure rate, alienation, and push-outs that are occuring in theWhite Shield School right now.

Please let us know what your thoughts are on the above data. If you, orsomeone you can recommend can help us, we would surely appreciate it.

Sincerely,

I have received the attached copy of a letter fromthe Parent/Student Committee of White Shield school in NorthDakota to Wyman Babby, Area Director of the Aberdeen office.The Parent/Student Committee is requesting a qualified evalua-tor to be part of a team to evaluate the White Shield school.I understand that the school is a joint BIA-local schooldistrict venture.

The statistics and facts presented with this letterare very disturbing. For example, in this school district45% of the Indian children are failing in at least onesubject; 4346 missed more than 10 days of school in the firstsemester; 31% manifest characteristics of students who thinkpoorly of themselves. At least one-half of the student bodyin the school is Indian, Yet, there is no Indian representa-tion bn the school board, and through misinformation and mis-understanding, the local Indian Advisory board was recentlyabolished.

The. local Tribal Education Committee recently com-missioned a study on the local school district. This study ishing paid for entirely by the tribe. I understand that theBIA is now "studying" the study to determine whether a formalBIA evaluation is needed. It seems very clear to me thatsomething is very wrong in the school system, and that the BureauShould assist in every way possible to correct these deficiencies.

Subject: WO 6413

On April 11, 1974, the Acting Director, Educational Services, metwith the following group:

1. Mr. Anson Baker, Superintendent, Fort Berthold Agency2. Vr. Henry Balliot, Education Program Admin., Ft. Berthold3. Mr. Dave :layers, Admin. Officer, Fort Berthold Tribal Council4. Mr. Matheny, Board Member, School District IBSS. Mr. Vance Gillette, Graduate Student, University of-N. D.6. Mrs. Shirley White, Parent. White Shield Community7. Ms. Becky Adamson, Field Trainer, Coalition of Indian

School Boards

This meeting was held with all the interested parties to attempt todiscuss the need for a school evaluation. It was hoped that a meet-ing of this type could result in the identification of the problqqsand the possible negotiations for a solution. This attempt at arriv-ing at an agreeable solution to the problem was not successful andall parties concerned felt that an evaluation was needed.

We have since been in contact with Mr. Tom Hopkins, of your office,for technical assistance in providing an impartial and valid evalua-tion at the White Shield School. It had been suggested that theevaluation be contracted to the National Indian Training and ResearchCenter at Tempe, Arizona. This :Mee is in favor of this approachand the interested parties at Fort Berthold have also agreed to this.

Dr. Gene !Atka of your office and the Acting Director of EducationalServices, Aberdeen Area Office, conducted and on-site visitation onApril 18, 1974 and drew up the parameters for this evaluation.
