When the people of Swedeborg, Missouri, decided to name their elementary school building, everyone knew it had to be named after someone truly special. Steve Hartman talks with the woman who was the school board's unanimous choice for the honor. cbsn.ws/4idcFMe

Today, 60 years ago, Billy Mills of the Oglala Lakota, won gold🏅 in the 10K at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics Whenever I’m feeling down or needing motivation, I watch this. That “LOOK AT MILLS LOOK AT MILLS” part always gives me chills &gets me choked up Happy Indigenous Peoples Day!

So grateful and honored to spend time with you today. I’m so impressed with your school, students, and community. Everyone made me feel welcomed right away. The kids were outstanding - quite a tribute to their teachers and parents! #nonfiction #kidlit #Native #codetalkers
In partnership with Yates Community Library, Librarian Emily Cebula & Social Studies Teacher Chris Vaughan hosted a visit w/author Andrea Page for 8th graders. Page spoke of the daily life of the Sioux, their tragic history & heroic actions of Code Talkers during WWII.
