Indian Education

It is the policy of the United States to fulfill the Federal Government's unique
and continuing trust relationship with and responsibility to the Indian people
for the education of Indian children. The Federal Government will continue to
work with local educational agencies, Indian tribes and organizations,
postsecondary institutions, and other entities toward the goal of ensuring that
programs that serve Indian children are of the highest quality and provide for
not only the basic elementary and secondary educational needs, but also the
unique educational and culturally related academic needs of these children.

Purpose

It is the purpose of this part to support the efforts of local educational
agencies, Indian tribes and organizations, postsecondary institutions, and
other entities to meet the unique educational and culturally related academic
needs of American Indian and Alaska Native students, so that such students
can meet the same challenging State student academic achievement
standards as all other students are expected to meet.

Programs
This part carries out the purpose described in subsection (a) by authorizing
programs of direct assistance for —
meeting the unique educational and culturally related academic needs of
American Indians and Alaska Natives;
the education of Indian children and adults;
the training of Indian persons as educators and counselors, and in other
professions serving Indian people; and
research, evaluation, data collection, and technical assistance.
