Title VI - Indian Education

Title VI is a federally funded program designed to meet the needs of Native American students. The goals and objectives are to promote and enhance positive school performance, academic achievement, and enrich understanding of the Native American culture. The Title VI grant program provides additional assistance for Native American students at risk for meeting proficiency on state mandated assessments. Each student must have a Title VI Student Eligibility Certification (ED 506 Form) and membership/enrollment number or tribal enrollment/membership/citizenship card or letter on file in the Federal Programs office to meet eligibility requirements of the program in order to receive services.

Policy 1: The LEA will disseminate relevant applications, evaluations, program plans and information related to the LEA's education program and activities with sufficient advance notice to allow tribes and parents of Indian children the opportunity to review and make recommendations. [34CFR222.94(a)(1)]

Title I & Title IX A McKinney-Vento Homeless Education Services

The McKinney-Vento program is designed to address the problems that homeless children and youth have faced in enrolling, attending, and succeeding in school. Under this program, State educational agencies (SEAs) must ensure that each homeless child and youth has equal access to the same free, appropriate public education as other children and youth. Homeless children and youth should have access to the educational and other services that they need to enable them to meet the same challenging State student academic achievement standards to which all students are held.
