Students are presented with a Certificate of Recognition to honor their achievements.
Awards are sponsored by Chief and Council/Casino Rama Awards, Native Language Program and Special Needs.
In order to revive the language preschoolers are taught the language in the daycare and students from the community are offered classes in the local elementary schools.
