STATEMENT

The School District of Onalaska occupies the ancestral lands of the Hoocąk (Ho-Chunk) People. The Hoocąk thrived along the rivers and the region until the 1830 Indian Removal Act. The school district respects the survival, resistance, and resilience of the Hoocąk and their descendants in the region. Please take a moment to honor the first peoples and the land we stand upon. 

Land Acknowledgements are located at each building within the school district.
