The Newell Education Association (NEA) has added a bake sale to the Homecoming Events.

The Third Grade Class attended a seminar presented by Billy Mills in Rapid City.
William Mervin Mills, also known by his Oglala Lakota name Tamakhóčhe Theȟíla, is an American Oglala Lakota former track and field athlete who won a gold medal in the 10,000 metre run at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics.
Billy Mills was once an orphan on the Pine Ridge Reservation. But before his father was called to the ancestors, he told Billy how to conquer his suffering: You have broken wings, son. You have to dig deeper, below the anger, the hurt, the self-pity. The pursuit of a dream will heal you.
Wings of an Eagle: The Gold Medal Dreams of Billy Mills is the 2025 Young Readers One Book. It is a dramatic and inspiring autobiographical tale of overcoming odds by Lakota gold medalist Billy Mills and co-author Donna Janell Bowman, with stunning illustrations by award-winning Lakota artist S.D. Nelson.
