Omaha Basic vs Ho

Omaha Nation Public Schools (UNPS), the Omaha Language Cultural Center (ULCC) & Title VII Department are resources to our children, schools and community. We promote the daily use of spoken Omaha language and participation in our Omaha culture. Omaha Nation Public Schools asked Thornton Media, Inc. to help publish this free app. We hope this app will help the public to appreciate and learn about the culture and language of the Omaha people. Thank you!
