    Postsecondary Financial Aid for American Indians and Alaska Natives. ERIC Digest.
    One of the many critical issues confronting the education of American Indians and Alaska Natives [hereafter, "Natives"] is ensuring that Native students gain equal access to postsecondary education and that they are prepared for academic success. This Digest summarizes challenges Native students confront in obtaining adequate financial aid; general sources of aid for Native students; and ways communities and parents can support students through the financial aid process. The Digest ends with some readily available print and Web-based sources of information about student financial aid.
    FINANCIAL AID CHALLENGES AND REALITIES
    Lack of family resources. Many Native students enter college with no resources other than what they receive through financial aid. High levels of unemployment in many Native communities severely limit students' and their families' ability to save money for education (LaCounte, 1987). During the 1992-93 academic year, about 62 percent of Native American undergraduates needed financial assistance. Most of these students received financial aid in the form of grants, loans, and work-study (Pavel et al., 1998).

    Grants promote economic self-sufficiency and strengthen marriage Grant Objectives: HHS' Assistant Secretary for Children and Families Wade F. Horn, Ph.D., today announced the award of $7.3 million to 13 Alaska Native organizations to promote economic self-sufficiency and strengthen healthy marriage.
    The announcement was made during site visits in Alaska this week by the Administration for Children and Families' Commissioner of the Administration for Native Americans, Quanah Crossland Stamps. Her trip this week is intended to strengthen partnerships to promote social and economic self-sufficiency for Native Americans.
    "The Bush Administration values the vibrant cultural heritage of Native Americans in Alaska," said Dr. Horn. "By strengthening marriage and the well-being of Alaska's Native families, these grants not only keep that heritage alive but also ensure that more Alaska Natives will enter and stay in the economic mainstream."
    Today's $7.3 million is over and above $3.9 million in grants to Alaska Natives for environmental enhancement, language preservation and social and economic development released during site visits by HHS Deputy Secretary Alex Azar and Dr. Horn earlier this month. ANA has also provided $37 million to Native American communities around the country this year in social and economic development, language preservation and environmental regulatory enhancement grants.

    by Tracy Elkins, Ann Hooser, Rhonda Madrid, Becky Ortiz Introduction Task Resources Process ... Conclusion
    Introduction You know how weird parents can be, right? Well, yours have just announced that the family is going to take a vacation during the school year and you have a chance to decide where. The catch is (you know there's always one with parents) it has to be an educational experience. You know the other kids are trying to figure out how to make a trip to Disneyland educational. This will never get past your parents. You have to come up with a vacation plan that everyone will love. You have to make this good, cause you don't want to end up wandering through a stuffy old museum like last year. You've heard about this sled dog race in Alaska called the Iditarod and wonder if maybe this would be not only a vacation but an adventure your family would never forget.
    The Task To convince your parents that Alaska is the best place to go for a vacation, your class is going to learn as much as they can about the race, Alaska, and the people that live there. To add to the fun, the class will act as a TV news team to gather information. There will be 5 groups of reporters. Each one will cover one of the following topics: history, geography, art and culture, math, and science. We will have a live news cast that will be taped for parents who won't be able to make it. History Reporters 1. You will need to know some history of the Iditarod. To help you with this there are several

    A Summary of the Research
    "Education contributes to an individual's journey toward self reliance and independence. Schools and instruction must be designed and organized to meet the varying needs of individual learners....Alaska is striving to improve educational outcomes for all students."
    (Dr. Shirley Hollaway, Commissioner of Education for Alaska, in a speech given to the Special Education Directors' Conference, Anchorage, AK, September 1996) "The entire context of American education is changing. We need teachers skilled in using computers as a powerful teaching tool, and many more teachers well-versed in teaching English as a second language. Our teachers need to teach to a higher level of achievement, and be prepared to teach all of America's children-the gifted and talented, our many new immigrants, the college-bound achiever, and the disabled child who is learning so much more because he or she is now included."
