the Feathering Ceremony

Adding to the count
honoring song
Our school district honors our Native American graduates with a Feathering Ceremony just prior to high school graduation. It is an awesome event, full of tradition, pride and joy for the graduates and their families. It was an honor to be there this evening and celebrate our students' success, several of whom I have known since elementary school.
