Quiz Bowl

On Thursday, September 15,  the after school program had a quiz bowl over the words and phrases they have learned so far this school year. The youth practice Wichita language daily thanks to the language app that was developed with the help of the late Doris McLemore. Prizes for the winners included backpacks donated by Dane Evans who is a Wichita Tribal member, and also one of Doris' grandchildren. Dane is a former quarterback for the University of Tulsa, and is currently playing for the Canadian Football League's Hamilton Tiger-Cats. Pictured are standing, left to right- Shaylene Courtney, Cailea Williams, Ombria Williams, Skylah Williams. Sitting left to right- Lily Williams, Ethan Puerta, Sasha Torres, Brandon Torres.
