Laina Phillips (Spokane Tribe of Indians), principal of Wellpinit High School, Wellpinit, Washington; and Lance West (Pyramid Lake Paiute), principal of Schurz Elementary School, Schurz, Nevada, will share their unique experiences as school principals in their homelands. They will talk about how they navigate the processes, approaches and curriculum about the Columbus Day narrative.
