POLAND — Jarod Jeffers and Tyler Morrison, both 7, sway their hips and move their feet to the rhythm of the drum.

The two boys were among Poland North Elementary School first-graders, dressed in feather-adorned headbands made from construction paper and vests cut from brown paper shopping bags, to welcome members of the Red Hawk American Indian Cultural Society.

Their appearance was part of the school’s study focusing on Thanksgiving.

The six-member Pipe family of Austintown, society members, performed traditional American Indian songs and dances and shared information about their culture this week at the school.
