Kasey Nicholson, a certified wellness educator, well-known comedian and motivational speaker of Fort Belknap Indian Reservation visited the Hardin Intermediate School yesterday. His presentation included topics on cultural-identity, self-esteem, self-empowerment, educational endeavors, spiritual awareness, cultural understanding and many more. He connected with our students on so many levels when he spoke with humor and laughter. But he also spoke with seriousness so students understood the importance of his topics. The students enjoyed listening to the flute and the story behind why he started playing the flute. Throughout the presentation students and teachers were engaged and shared some good laughs. A’ho Kasey.
Special thanks to the Hardin Intermediate Indian Education for All committee – Jennifer Schaff and Jenna Janssen along with Principal Sandra Francis for hosting Kasey Nicholson to Present. A’ho
