Program Mission Statement

The mission of the sitting Bull College Division of Education is to balance the constructivist view of teaching and learning while integrating the Ochethi Sakowin philosophy, values, and beliefs. Both the institutional and education division mission statements articulate a need to enhance the educational attainment of Standing Rock members while maintaining a focus on Ochethi Sakowin history, language, culture, and values. Since 1995 the education division has integrated constructivist principles throughout the program of study.
