Detroit Lakes Public Schools (Detroit Lakes, Minnesota) Title IV, P.L. 92-318, End of Year Evaluation, 1977.
Detroit Lakes Public Schools, Minn.
During the 1976-77 school year, the program's priorities were (1) to hire a Home School Coordinator to provide counseling services for the child and to be a liaison between the school and the home; (2) to hire Instructional Aides to work closely with the teacher providing any type of assistance which would make school easier and more enjoyable for the Indian student; (3) to hire a certified teacher/tutor to work in the junior high school tutoring students having difficulty in math and reading; and (4) to strengthen the curriculum with the introduction of a Cultural Heritage Program. A needs assessment was made of all students in September and again in May. Based on teacher judgement, teachers rated students on their performance in reading and math, work habits, classroom behavior, and adjustment to the learning environment. The second annual Indian Day was presented by the Title IV program and members of the junior and senior high First American Clubs. The Local Indian Education Committee (LIEC) cooperated with the local Library Board to provide the Indian Images Mobile Gallery, and sponsored the mobile art exhibit from the Minneapolis Institute of Art. Among the activities for the coming year will be a review and revision, where necessary, of the LIEC's Constitution and By Laws. This report summarizes the activities completed through the program, provides some comments made by area students concerning the mobile gallery and art exhibit, presents the needs assessment and testing information, and presents the LIEC's Constitution and By Laws.
