The Ojibwe Charter School recently chose their February Students of the Months.  Ojibwe Charter School uses the Seven Grandfather Teachings for their Student of the Month program along with TRIBE.  TRIBE is a positive system of following school wide rules. TRIBE stands for; Treat others kindly, Ready to learn, I need to listen, Be safe, and Everyone tries their best.

The grandfather teaching for February is Love (Zaagi'idiwin). To know peace is to know love. Love must be unconditional. When people are weak they need love the most. In the Anishinaabe language, this word with the reciproca; theme /idi/ indicates that this form of love is mutual.
