WE STRIVE TO BE A STRONG SUPPORT SYSTEM BOTH ACADEMICALLY AND CULTURALLY FOR OUR NATIVE AMERICAN STUDENTS, SCHOOLS, AND FAMILIES. WE OFFER MANY CULTURAL SERVICES THROUGHOUT THE SCHOOL YEAR AND, WHILE COLLABORATING WITH TRIBAL DEPARTMENTS, STUDENTS AND PARENTS ARE MORE FAMILIAR WITH WHAT THEIR TRIBE HAS TO OFFER. OUR ACADEMIC SUPPORT COMBINED WITH TRIBAL CULTURE WE HOPE WILL GIVE STUDENTS MANY OPPORTUNITIES TO BE SUCCESSFUL.
What is NASS/Title VI?
Title VI and the Native American Student Services programs are the same. Title VI is a U.S. Federal program where the student, parent, or grandparent should be enrolled with a State or Federally recognized tribe. A Title 506 form needs to be filled out on each student and filed with the NASS department at Yukon Schools for a student to be enrolled and to receive services throughout the year. Once a student is enrolled, they remain enrolled until they graduate from high school. The student, parent, or grandparent can have a tribal citizenship card or CDIB card to go along with the form for the student to be enrolled. We can also get verification from the tribe if a tribal card cannot be found.
