Indian Education

The office of Indian Education oversees the Sioux Falls School District’s Title VI and Johnson O’Malley (JOM) programs. These Indian Education programs are federally funded programs, designed to meet the educational and culturally related needs of American Indian Students. They are coordinated through a parent advisory committee composed of parents or guardians of Native American Students. They advise the project supervisors and the school district in the direction and implementation of the Indian Education programs.
