Indian Teacher Grants
Education programs in seven state---Arizona, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Oregon and South Dakota---have been selected to receive nearly $3.8 million to provide training programs to recruit and graduate new American Indian teachers and school administrators, according to U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan. The University of Oregon will receive $344,950.
"These professional development grants will help us find, train and retain the very best teachers and administrators within American Indian communities," said Duncan. "These grants represent opportunity, both for teachers and their students."
The grant award is part of the Office or Indian Education's Professional Development program, which trains qualified individuals to become teachers and administrators in Indian communities.
