It's also where Nicky Oulette is in her first year as the [A]journalism[/A] teacher at Little Wound High School.NICKY OULETTE: "What else would make this a [A]newsworthy[/A] story?"STUDENT: "Human interest?"NICKY OULETTE: "Totally human interest ... "Ms. Oulette teaches the twelve students on the school [A]newspaper[/A], the Mustang News.NICKY OULETTE: "They pick the articles that we write. Sometimes, if we're getting stuck, I'll kind of guide them along. Say, like, here's a [A]couple[/A] of things that happened last week, here's who we can talk to. But, especially lately, they've been the one picking the [A]articles[/A]. One girl wanted to write her own column, [A]comparing[/A] the weather to [A]different[/A] parts of her own life. One girl wanted to start writing some song [A]reviews[/A]. So now, every two weeks, she'll pick out a couple of songs and write a review about them."The reporters also cover news like a recent flood at the [A]school[/A] caused by a broken water pipe. Yet the real story here is that Nicky Oulette is the school's first [A]journalism teacher[/A] in years. The Mustang News had stopped publishing. But now, not only is it back, copies are included every other week in the Lakota Country Times, a local newspaper. This way, school news [A]reaches[/A] parents and other people in the community.NICKY OULETTE: "I know a lot of schools have their own newspaper or newsletter, but don't know of many who have a newspaper for the school that's part of a reservation-wide or huge area-wide [A]publications[/A]."Other student newspapers have been[A] incorporated[/A] into Native American papers, but not many. The publisher of the Lakota Country Times, Connie Smith, says the public has [A]welcomed[/A] the idea.CONNIE SMITH: "Everywhere I go, people are talking to me about how proud they are. The kids do the news. They do the [A]interviews[/A]. They take the pictures. Sometimes a teacher may have something that goes in, but mostly it's the students. So I think the quality is as good as some of the stories I get from community members, because we get stories and photos from [A]community[/A] members that come in. So I've been really pleased."The idea inspired two other schools on the Pine Ridge Reservation to [A]publish[/A] their own papers. They take turns being [A]included[/A] in the Lakota Country Times.Brooke Chase Alone works on the Mustang News at Little Wound High School. She says her favorite story so far has been covering the [A]history[/A] of the annual Big Foot Ride. This is a two-week trail ride from the Standing Rock Reservation to Wounded Knee.Wounded Knee was where [A]government[/A] soldiers killed more than two hundred Sioux in eighteen ninety. The Army called it a battle; Indians called it a [A]massacre[/A].Brooke has a personal [A]connection[/A] to the story.BROOKE CHASE ALONE: "My grandpa, Percy White Plume, he was one of the [A]original [/A]riders. He helped start it the first year it got [A]started[/A]. And I just went to his house and[A] interviewed[/A] him about it. And it's, like, really interesting because you learn a lot of things about him that you can't get from other people, [A]because[/A] it's like a point of view, like, from their [A]perspective[/A]."</blockquote>
