Student Support
Information about liaisons, academic support, and resource teachers.
Liaisons
There are three community liaisons to assist families that are attending Title 1 schools. These liaisons work with both school staff and family members to identify specific needs and make referrals to community resources.
Reading and Math Academic Support
Resource teachers are available at various elementary and middle schools to help Native American students improve their reading, writing skills, and math skills. The skill components integrate AI/AN literature to strengthen vocabulary, sight words, and comprehension skills through use of appropriate student learning style.
Concepts targeted in the math program include early number concepts-building integers, early fraction concepts, fraction sense and operations, connecting decimals and percent to fractions, proportional reasoning and linear relationships, and the development of algebraic thinking.
