Last Friday night, the Gardens Arena Lobby was packed with around 350 vendors and attendees for A Taste of Warroad. This annual event features local food establishments, businesses and organizations. Attendees are able to tour market-style booths to get a “taste” of what Warroad has to offer! One of the stops included tastes provided by our own WHS Culinary students. They made incredible macarons, cake pops, wings with 3 homemade sauces, and mini egg rolls. Such an incredible event with a great turn out. Congratulations and great job to our WHS Culinary students.
It's TRACK & FIELD DAY for Warroad Elementary students! Families are welcome to come and support K-6 students as they participate in a variety of events!

American Indian Education hosted their annual Graduate Recognition Banquet to honor the graduating Native seniors through a feast with their close friends and family, gifts of honor, and a drum honor song.
Pictured are Daimon Gardner, Kylie Sinachack, Todd Powassin, Madison Lavergne, Emma Morrison, and Haley Syverson. They are pictured in their gifted blankets of honor and the new Ojibwe floral stoles. Look for these beautiful stoles at the school wide graduation ceremony!
On Wednesday, WHS hosted Brendan Strong of the Red Lake Nation who presented drum teachings and hand drum songs each period to various classes. Brendan is the lead singer of the nationally recognized Little Bear drum and the Cultural Coordinator at Red Lake Boys and Girls Club.
Brendan gave his perspective of living “Mino-bimaadiziwin” or what Ojibwe people refer to as “the good life” which includes his love of teaching youth the cultural ways of the Ojibwe people, marathon running, and his years leading a healthy and sober life.
American Indian Education looks forward to hosting Brendan again in the future for more drum teachings in the elementary and high school!
