Congratulations ONHS Class of 2025!

On June 5, 2025, the Oneida Nation High School Class of 2025 proudly walked the stage at the Oneida Casino Hotel, marking a powerful milestone filled with cultural pride, heartfelt speeches, and community celebration.

Highlights included inspiring words from Principal Dr. Artley Skenandore, Chairman Tehassi Hill, and Councilman Marlon Skenandore, as well as moving speeches by Co-Valedictorians Jaylyn Caldwell and Jonas Johnson.

Special thanks to IMoore Collective and Tuscarora Woodworks by Dionne Irene Jacobs for crafting the beautiful stoles, symbolizing the strength and unity of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy.

We’re so proud of our graduates — your journey is just beginning!

A Look Back: Oneida Nation Class of 1999

On May 27, 1999, the Oneida Nation High School celebrated a proud milestone as the Class of 1999 held their graduation ceremony outdoors behind the Oneida Nation Elementary School. Among the graduates was Tehassi Hill, who would later go on to serve as Chairman of the Oneida Nation.

The day was filled with joy across generations, including a Head Start commencement where Ernie Stevens Jr. honored each child with a feather. Oneida Nation Royalty of WI and Miss Indian Wisconsin were also present to share their best wishes.

A beautiful reminder of how far we’ve come — and the bright futures that began that day.

2. Healing to Wellness Program: A 17-month support program for individuals returning from treatment, focused on long-term recovery.

3. Youth-Driven Multimedia Campaign: Created by students to raise awareness and prevent opioid use among youth.
