A reminder for our high school seniors in regards to wearing tribal regalia at graduation.
Policy 7.22 - 4.0 - Tribal Regalia
Students enrolled in the Ponca City Public School district are permitted to wear tribal regalia during the school’s official graduation ceremonies, whether held at a public or private location.
Tribal regalia is defined as traditional garments, jewelry, other adornments such as an eagle feather, an eagle plume, a beaded cap, a stole, or similar objects of cultural and religious significance worn by members of a federally recognized Indian tribe or the tribe of another county.
Tribal regalia does not include any firearm or other weapon. Tribal regalia does not include any object that is otherwise prohibited by federal law, except in compliance with an appropriate federal permit.
