American Indian Education

American Indian Education Programming provides services to students, parents and families. American Indian Education Aid is administered by the Minnesota Department of Education. MAPS American Indian Program goals and initiatives are created in collaboration with the American Indian Parent Advisory Committee (AIPAC).  The goal is to provide meaningful, intentional, effective academic/non academic services and opportunities to every MAPS American Indian student, while fostering cultural identity and pride.  In addition, we provide education and professional development to MAPS staff.
