Resolutions Adopted After South Tama Indian Student Walkout
After a walkout and class boycott by Indian students at South Tama County High School, the board of education approved four resolutions. Twenty five Indians left, 17 stayed four days, and five meetings were held with administrators and teachers. The board kept existing unexcused absence rules and considered non renewal of the Johnson O Malley contract with the BIA for 1975 76. Meetings will be limited to student and staff representatives, unauthorized gatherings banned, and sit in details disputed by teachers led to absence of a second meeting. All students had returned to classes by the start of the final week.
