Three traditional Cheyenne chiefs visited the Cheyenne Middle School in Edmond, Oklahoma, on Monday.
Harvey Pratt, George Old Crow and Lawrence Hart shared their culture with about 250 sixth-graders. Students helped Old Crow erect a teepee. Pratt displayed his artwork and gave a presentation on his work as a forensic sculptor. Hart showed students historical tribal items, including a peace medal that dates to 1801.
This was the sixth visit by Cheyenne leaders to the school since it opened in 1999.
