American Indian Education

Any student with American Indian ancestry who is either an enrolled member of a federally recognized tribe; has a parent that is an enrolled member of a federally recognized tribe; or has a grandparent that is an enrolled member of a federally recognized tribe. At least one of the above must apply.

Program services are free of charge to all American Indian students.

To enroll in our program you must fill out a consent form and drop off at your child's school office. For more information, contact Fonda Smith at (952) 245-2913.

Our American Indian Education program receives federal grant money based on the number of students enrolled in our program. The more 506 forms, the more money we receive for student programming.
