Deep dives into the plight of Native Americans in the aftermath of the Sand Creek and Wounded Knee massacres and the Japanese-Americans following their release from internment camps have led to some significant honors for three Greybull students.
Jack Pharaoh, whose documentary was entitled, “With Wounded Knee, We Still Stand,” took first place in the senior division at State History Day held April 29 in Laramie.
Middle schoolers Reagan Vigil and Lilliann Otto, meanwhile, placed first with their junior group documentary, “Executive Order 9066 Japanese-American Internment: Behind the Wire.”
All three qualified for National History Day Contest June 9-13 at the University of Maryland, which is located just 12 miles from the nation’s capitol.
