A Resolution Supporting the Establishment of a
National Advisory Board on Indian Education
to the Bureau of Indian Affairs
WHEREAS, the BIA administers a comprehensive program of
education services to the American Indian and
Alaska Native Tribes in areas of: elementary and
secondary education, preschool, adult education,
higher education, employment assistance, community
colleges, tribal contract and BIA schools, JOM and
Impact Aid assistance to public schools, with an
annual budget of $277 million, and
WHEREAS, the BIA is desperately in need of appropriate
advice and consultation from those served by these
programs, the American Indian and Alaska Native
Tribes, and
WHEREAS, the American Indian and Alaska Native Tribes have a
wide assortment of education organizations and
associations who serve limited and fractional
interests within the BIA education division, and
WHEREAS, a National Advisory Board on Indian Education to
the BIA would greatly serve the guidance and
consultation policy and goals which are the trust
responsibility of the BIA to the American Indian
and Alaska Native peoples,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the NCAI calls upon the
BIA with direct input from the tribes, to plan,
organize, and create the National Advisory Board on
Indian Education, which shall be composed of
representatives of the federally-recognized
American Indian and Alaska Native peoples, and
shall include, but not be limited to, the following
duties and responsibilities:
1. Meet at least quarterly with the Director of the
Office of Indian Education Programs to review
issues in BIA Indian education, and provide
guidance and recommendations on such issues.
2. Provide an annual report on proceedings,
recommendations, and action in BIA/OIEP which
shall be provided to the President, U.S.
Congress, BIA, and federally recognized tribes.
3. The operational budget for the Board shall be
added to the BIA budget as an additional line
item and not taken from education programs
already in existence,
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the BIA report back to NCAI at
their January, 1985, meeting in Washington, D.C.,
on the progress of this request. Submitted by Rick
St. Germaine, Lac Courte Oreilles
