The Logo

Reconnecting The Circle’s logo is a contemporary abstract of the medicine wheel found within many Native American cultures. The four colors - red, yellow, black and white – represent the four directions. The logo is open at the top to show the act of "reconnecting". 

The Website

The new website provides features that allow students to publish and share their stories with the RTC community and the world. The site also provides features that enable teachers to contribute materials on Native American studies (grades K-12).
