Title VI Indian Education Program

Klahowya! Osiyo! Halito!
The Title VI Indian Education Program provides supplementary education support to èßäÊÓƵ of documented American Indian ancestry representing over 100 U.S. tribes. Our program provides cultural education to connect èßäÊÓƵ with their Native history, cultures and traditions, instilling pride and confidence to achieve challenging academic standards.
The purpose of the èßäÊÓƵ Title VI Indian Education Act Project is to improve the academic success of American Indian/Alaska Natives through supplemental services that support the culturally related learning needs of program enrolled children and youth. Portland's Title VI Project is focused on three major areas:
- Improved academic achievement
- Increased student retention
- Increased Native cultural awareness/connections

An extensive collection of Indian Education resources is located in the Program's Resource Library which is used by Native families, èßäÊÓƵ, and district staff to access enriching curricular and instructional materials and support resources.
