Exploring Career Opportunities with the Red Cliff Band of Lake Superior Chippewa: Connecting Culture, Language, and Future Paths
Unrestricted Use
CC BY
Rating
0.0 stars

This project aims to inform and connect students at Bayfield with career opportunities within Red Cliff. It is a major employer in our area and offers a variety of different work opportunities. Although not every district has a similar relationship with Red Cliff, many of the lessons and strategies we are exploring could be used in any community trying to highlight a major employer, whether that be a Native American sovereign nation, a university, local government or some other organization.  We are trying to develop awareness of career opportunities both by creating visuals to hang around the school and facilitating a speaker series. We are also developing lessons for the math, science and language classrooms with community partners, so students get to connect classroom learning with local careers and get hands-on experience working alongside Red Cliff employees.  Introduction Video
