| Abstract | Junior and senior students from 2 high schools in South Dakota and from 6 high schools in Alaska were studied and compared for leadership potential in their local communities. Some 119 Sioux students and 63 Athapaskan students were interviewed as were principals, guidance counselors, teachers, and area officials (Bureau of Indian Affairs, Public Health Service, and local Indian leaders). In addition, questionnaires were mailed to teachers in the 8 schools under study. The 4 indicators of leadership potential used were leadership aspiration, academic performance, character traits recognizable by peers and teachers, and future plans of students. Sioux students were most often lacking in leadership aspiration, and Athapaskan students lacked leadership plans as reflected by their lack of interest in college or a high-level service occupation. Major recommendations were (1) that Sioux students be exposed to an intensive program of study and guidance to encourage interest and concern for the Pine Ridge Reservation and (2) that Alaskan schools should provide both information about, and support for, college attendance and entry into professional level occupations.
