found guilty days later for

the same reasons (Arizona

The six Hopi men were

being unjustly punished for

their beliefs and most notably for adhering to a way

of life which consisted of

not taking up arms against

anyone. These Hopi men

were trapped between two

Hopi Jr/Sr High School

had a protest and lockdown

April 18.

Approximately two dozen students protested on

behalf of English teacher

Myles Beam who was recently placed on administrative leave. The students

were protesting in the area

of the football field.

“We want Beam,” the students continually chanted.

Some students also chanted “We want Dushon.” Dushon Monongye, academic

counselor for sophomores,

juniors and seniors, was

also placed on administrative leave, but she has since

been returned to duty.

During the protest, the

school went into lockdown because someone

reported that a student may

have a weapon. The police

searched for a weapon and

when they were unable to

find a weapon the lockdown was lifted.

Due to the lockdown and

the protest, students were

sent home at about 11:40 a.m.

along with a letter explaining

the situation to the parents.

Hopi Police Lt. Paul Sidney talked to the staff at

HJSHS to explain the lockdown. He said the call about

the weapon provided no

information about names,

ages or descriptions.

“We did a protective

sweep while in the lockdown,” he said.

Sidney told the staff

that they need to be patient during the lockdown

because it takes time to

sweep the building. Several

teachers and students had

bathroom issues. Neither

students nor teachers are allowed to leave their rooms

to use the bathroom during

a lockdown. One teacher

who left his class to use

the bathroom was detained

briefly because he didn’t

have any credentials on

him, such as the school ID.

Sidney said some became lackadaisical and

didn’t appear to be taking

the situation seriously. He

said laughing and loud

talking drew attention

to some classes which

wouldn’t have been good

if an active shooter was in

the building.

“Please work with your

facilities (department). We

are dealing with lives and

students,” he told the staff.

Sidney said once a lockdown is called that the

lockdown takes precedent

over state, federal and tribal laws regarding amendment rights.

“That’s because lives are

at stake,” he said.

Sidney said everyone supports peaceful demonstration, but once a lockdown is

called that safety takes precedent. He said once a lockdown is called that the chairman and vice chairman’s

offices had to be informed.

On April 21, interim superintendent Alban Naha

called an assembly where

he told the students that

he understands the support and love they have for

their teachers. However, he

said governing board policies have to be followed

because that helps run the

school and keeps everybody accountable including himself, parents, teachers and students.

because they were unable

to demonstrate a creditable

church membership and

attachment to an American concept of theology.

Hence, the United States

Government did not recognize the Hopi religion as

being a legitimate religious

practice.

The Hopi have always

been an agricultural and

peaceful people. Status

and honor in war has never

been a part of Hopi culture,

although the Hopi have

had to deal with its share

history. Hopi, as a culture, is based on unwritten

laws that are used to guide

Hopi people to sustain and

live the proper way of life.

The Hopi Way of Life has

helped the Hopi people

maintain a strong grip on

its culture. The laws of

the Hopi Way are set forth

at birth and are incorporated into the daily teachings. The Hopi people are

different, in the sense that

each person has a place

in Hopi society and plays

a role in the Hopi Way of

to choose if they want to

accept and follow the Hopi

Way.

Stan Bindell

Hopi Tutuveni

Danielle Albert, Miss

ASU Indian 1st Attendant,

spoke to Hopi High students about using being

the only Native American

in their college classes to

their advantage.

Albert, who comes from

Old Oraibi, spoke to several sessions during the Hopi

High Youth Summit April

27 at the high school.

Albert spoke during the

sessions on “Help! I don’t

know what to do after high

school!” The other presenters

during that session included CiAnna Sakeva,, Carrie

Sakeva and Tracy Honani.

Albert, who graduated from Flagstaff High

School, said when she arrived at ASU she found she

was the only Native American in most of her classes. She said she used that

to her advantage because

when other students asked

where she was from she

was able to tell them about

her tribe and culture.

Albert was also the only

Native American on the

ASU cheerleading squad and

earned All-American cheerleading status, which paid off

with a trip to London.

“That was a big leadership

position for ASU,” she said.

Albert, who is Hopi and

Navajo, also serves on an

ASU program that goes out

into the community to talk

about education.

Albert was the only Native American cheerleader

when she was at Flagstaff

High School and that helped

her earn scholarships for

her leadership abilities. She

obtained scholarships from

the Hopi Tribe, Hopi Education Endowment Fund

and ASU. She said the

scholarships even covered

her food and rent. She said

students should apply for

scholarships even if they

are only $200 because everything helps.

“Be proud of who you

are; you are unique,” she

tells her fellow Native

American students.

Albert said being the

only Native American in

class can be unsettling.

“You don’t know who to

talk to or who to relate to,”

she said. “I told my story about who I was. A lot

were interested about our

language and culture.

Through six (6) interactive sessions, women will gain the knowledge, skills and confidence to protect

Military Sexual/Harassment HEEF looks to award $20,000

for Community Project Grants

Trauma (MST)

By: Sharon Fredericks, Counselor

Veterans Outreach, Dept. of Veterans Affairs

According to a recent release from the department of Veterans Administration, 40,000

military women were deployed during Desert Shield and Desert Storm and 280,000

women have served in Afghanistan or Iraq

(E-rock) since September 2011. Many of

those women served consecutive tours. Incidentally MST can happen to men too.

Military assault: 1 in 4 women in the

military are sexually assaulted or traumatized and 1 in 100 men are assaulted too.

Women join the Armed Forces for various reasons. Some might think “it’s their

choice, they shouldn’t have joined” This is

NOT a valid criticism. NO ONE goes into

ANY job to be harmed, in civilian life too.

After the event, it becomes your secret. It

may stay in that place for a long time, years.

The American Indian is no stranger to

war and trauma. Throughout history we

have been at war, with the U.S. government and with neighboring Tribes/Nations. Today, we live in peace but almost

all of us have volunteered to bear arms.

Returning home was/is always a great

feeling. But after the feeling has worn off,

we’re faced with what we need to do to

support ourselves and our families. We

realize readjusting to civilian life is not

always easy.

After being home from your service, did

your family say, “You’ve changed!” It’s

true, our closest friends and family are the

first to observe that “something” about

you changed.

PTS (Post traumatic stress) due to sexual

trauma, whether it’s rape, assault or harassment can alter the way you see yourself and

the world. It seems that everything around

you becomes a threat to your safety. It presents itself in many different ways. Let’s

say a returning veteran lives today with

his/her family, extended family within his/

her community. They are looking to future

plans. Then one day, a man whom they just

met, maybe a relative who may be happy to

see them again comes too close or makes

a comment that is too forward. Everything

in an instant becomes unsafe. The veteran

may put up a shield, like a stand offish attitude, then without comment, leaves. After getting away, they might feel anger. In

PTS there might be an intenseness that can

be identified as helplessness. This helplessness is learned in the trauma itself. Something in the meeting of the man was the

TRIGGER whether the veteran was aware

of what it was.

The Trigger is something that that plays

on our senses. It can be a sight, a sound, or

a smell. Our bodies have been “triggered”,

and we are back to a memory of the trauma,

maybe several. In some cases, a veteran can

feel it is actually happening, we call that a

flashback. Every person has their own way

of feeling stress. In traumatic events there

is intenseness. Some get headaches, clenched

jaws, self -medicate with substances, have

nightmares or poor sleep. After, there are

other avoidance behaviors which are usually

recognized by your family or close one. Your

child might think, “ok, dad or mom is mad

again, I better be quiet or leave them alone.”

They can learn your behaviors over time too.

If nothing else you can use education

about PTS to gain awareness. “We can

change the effects of trauma and memory.

It isn’t the memory we change. It’s the impact of that memory on us.”

We are the Veterans Outreach with the

Department of Veteran Affairs, in Hotevilla,

Arizona. Located across from the Hotevilla

Store. MST counseling is free to all veterans, men and woman and National Guardsmen who were activated for war, regardless

of type of discharge.

VA women’s hotline is 1-855-women.

I am conducting PTS education on

Tuesday’s 10-12 for women, every week.

Car Seat Safety Class

Coming Back to Hopi

Greg Sehongva, Public Health Technician

Hopi Dept. of Health and Human Services

Phoenix Children’s Center for Family Health and

Safety and Hopi Department of Health and Human

Services will be hosting two

“Car Seat Safety classes on

Wednesday, June 14, 2017

at 1:00pm and 3:30pm, at

the Wellness Center Conference Room. The 90 minute class will include how

to keep you and your family

safe on every trip.

Earlier this year, Angelica Baker and Blanca

Villasenor from Phoenix

Children’s Center for Family Health and Safety stated

that last year’s Buckle Up

for Life event on Hopi was

one of their most successful

events and they are excited

to return again this year.

During the September 2016

event, over 100 families

took the class and received

a free child safety seat. The

Hopi Department of Health

and Human Services hopes

for continued success. The

Child Passenger Safety

Program at Phoenix Children’s Hospital is generously sponsored by Western Refining.

Attendees of the class

will be eligible to receive a

FREE car seat(s) for their

child(ren). Seats are available for: expecting parents,

grandparents,

guardians

and caregivers. The Hopi

Department of Health and

Human Services will be

collecting the height and

weight for children during

April 21, 2017 – May 12,

2017, afterwards the appropriate car seats will

be ordered for participating children. After each

class, a distribution of car

seats will take place at the

HVMC parking lot.

There are requirements

to participate in the class:

• Participants must reside

on the Hopi Reservation

(not necessarily a Hopi

Tribal Member)

• Families that participated

in last year’s event will not

be eligible for this event

• Only one child safety

seat will be provided for

each child, no exceptions

• If you do not attend the

class, you will not be eligible to receive a car seat

during the distribution event

• PLEASE

PROVIDE

YOUR CHILDREN’S

CURRENT WEIGHT

AND HEIGHT MEASUREMENTS BEFORE

MAY 12, 2017! (Providing accurate measurements is important, so

the appropriate seat is ordered for your child)

WIC Program, may have

the most recent measurements for your child. Measurements may also be taken at the Hopi Health Care

Center.To register for the

class, contact the Department of Health and Human

Services at 928-734-3404

or in person in the two-story Hopi Tribe Administrative Building.

Kykotsmovi Village, AZ - Around this

time each spring, The Hopi Education Endowment Fund (HEEF) accepts proposals

for its IMAGINE Grant program. IMAGINE grants are awarded by the HEEF to

fund Hopi or non-Hopi organizations/individuals looking to provide a service within the Hopi community. The HEEF began

accepting proposals for 2017 IMAGINE

grants on April 10th, and is seeking to

award a total of $20,000 this year.

While a large portion of funds awarded by the HEEF are for scholarships for

post-secondary students, HEEF Executive Director LuAnn Leonard stated,

“IMAGINE grants are unique in that they

are used to fund programs that provide

education for all ages of Hopi students,

from 3 to 103.” Since 2004, the HEEF has

funded nearly $150,000 to over 20 different programs and organizations including

Hopi Lavayi, Tewa Energy, Adventures 4

Hopi, and Natwanhoyam Tunatya. Prior IMAGINE grants have funded both

pre-existing programs and programs in

the early development stages. “HEEF

IMAGINE grants allow a creative idea to

become a working project that can have a

real, lasting impact in the Hopi community,” Leonard stated.

Grants are awarded to programs that

provide educational activities that fit the

mission of the HEEF. Desired characteristics of IMAGINE Grants programs

include cultural relevance, grassroots

capacity building, effectiveness, transferability, and sustainability. Programs must

take place within June 1 and December

31, 2017 to be eligible. Individual program award amounts will vary based on

proposed program budgets and the number of programs approved.

IMAGINE Grant applications can be

downloaded from the HEEF website

(www.hopieducationfund.org) or picked

up at the HEEF office in Kykotsmovi.

Completed applications must be received

or postmarked by 5:00p.m. Friday, May

Protect Yourself from Plague

Madeline Sahneyah

Public Health Compliance Officer

Hopi Department of Health and Human Services

Hopi land is located

above the 4,500 feet elevation in Northern Arizona

and plague naturally occurs

at this elevation. Plague

is caused by the bacterial

Yersinia pestis or Y.pestis

and spread through the bite

of an infected flea. Plague

can also infect humans and

their pets. Residents in our

communities can become

exposed to this bacterium

by petting dogs or cats

that may have fleas and

by touching or skinning

infected animals (such as

prairie dogs, squirrels and

rabbits) or getting too

close to rodent burrows or

nests. Plague can also be

spread through direct contact with blood or tissues

of infected rodents, rabbits

or other animals.

Bubonic plague is the

most common form of

plague. It usually occurs

after a bite from an infected flea with the person

becoming sick 1-6 days

after being bitten. The

key symptom of bubonic

plague is a swollen and

painful lymph node in the

groin, armpit or neck area.

Other symptoms include

fever, chills, headache and

extreme exhaustion. If it is

not treated early, the bacteria can spread to other

parts of the body and cause

septicemic or pneumonic

plague.

Septicemic plague occurs when plague bacteria multiply in the bloodstream. It is more severe

and causes bleeding into

the skin and other tissues.

The skin and tissues may

also turn black and die,

especially on the fingers,

toes, and nose

Pneumonic plague occurs when the person

breathes in infectious

droplets that infect the

lungs. It can also develop

from untreated bubonic

or septicemic plague that

can spread to the lungs.

Symptoms include high

fever, chills, cough, difficulty breathing and coughing up bloody mucus. It

is possible for pneumonic

plague to be spread from

person to person through

infectious droplets. This

human to human transmission typically requires di-

rect and close contact with

a person who has pneumonic plague and is very

rare. Pneumonic plague is

almost always fatal if it is

not treated right away.

To protect yourself

against plague, avoid contact with wild rodents and

domestic animals that may

have fleas. The weather

is warmer and more time

is spent outdoors and in

the fields. Protect yourself and family by staying

away from rodent burrows

and use insect repellant to

keep the fleas away.

PLAGUE IS A SERIOUS ILLNESS. IF

EXPERIENCING ANY

SYMPTOMS, SEE A

HEALTH CARE PROVIDER IMMEDIATELY.

PLAGUE CAN

BE TREATED SUCCESSFULLY

WITH

ANTIBIOTICS

BUT

A PERSON MUST

BE TREATED RIGHT

AWAY TO AVOID SERIOUS COMPLICATIONS OR DEATH.

unveiled a proposal to permanently extend and expand Proposition 301 monies to a full

1 percent, which if supported by voters would result in an immediate 11 percent raise

for teachers and $100 million for school facilities.

“My proposal would generate $400 million annually for teacher salaries and school

buildings,” Douglas stated. “By setting aside the majority of this funding for teacher

salaries, we will provide close to an 11 percent raise for teachers in the first year, which

means nearly $5,000 more in take-home pay. Using the remaining funding for school

facilities can help address another looming crisis, which is the depreciation of our

school buildings and infrastructure.”

Thursday’s announcement was shared in Douglas’ presentation to the Arizona Business Education Coalition (ABEC), a group of Arizona business and education leaders

committed to helping develop effective public education policy. Her announcement

comes on the cusp of the Superintendent’s next annual statewide We Are Listening

Tour, which is where these two critical issues were repeatedly brought to her attention.
