Extractions: Class action status is being sought in a $25 billion dollar lawsuit filed against the federal government and three Roman Catholic boarding schools. The schools named in the suit include St. Francis Mission school on the Rosebud Sioux Indian Reservation, St. Paul's in Marty, the headquarters of the Yankton Sioux Tribe, and Holy Rosary on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, all of which educated Sioux children in South Dakota. The suits were filed by five Sioux who claim they were abused at the schools, and there may be thousands of other students who could join the suit. The plaintiffs allege various forms of abuse by the priests and nuns, including beatings and sexual abuse while attending the boarding schools as a federal program to induce Indians to assimilate into white society.

But such is the case with the Chemawa Indian School football team. This season the Braves are playing their first varsity schedule in five years. Last year, the team finished an independent junior varsity schedule with a 2-4 record. The team didn't score a touchdown until the third game. Last week, against Waldport, Chemawa lost 53-8. The boarding school is far removed from its past. Chemawa was playing football in Salem before Salem High School (now North Salem) had even opened its doors. Salem High School opened in 1906, 21 years after Chemawa. And from 1897 to 1905, Chemawa's football team played the University of Oregon five times.

Extractions: Choosing a college is very personal and very important. In fact, college counseling begins in the first year. Our College Counselor is available to all students and their families for advice and counsel regarding academic preparation, the search process, admission process, standardized tests and information on specific colleges. The real decision making takes place the last two years. Each junior meets individually with the College Counselor to exchange ideas and create a list of schools based on individual academic abilities, personal goals and aspirations. On vacation, these students visit colleges with their parents, refine their list and during the fall of senior year begin the application process. Our College Counselor will support you every step of the way and prepare the official report sent to colleges. The top 20% of our students have gone on to the following colleges over the last four years: Class of 2000: Colorado College, Oberlin, Reed, Stanford, UC Santa Cruz, Wesleyan
