“ Success Through Education! ”
The UAIC Education Department’s major focus is on student success.
Even though we haven’t been around long, already we pride ourselves in
our commitment and ability to offer our tribal members many educational
programs, activities and services. Making things happen educationally
for our tribal members and tribal children is our No. 1 priority.
The following are some of the services offered:
- The Occupational Therapy (OT) services are designed to provide
children opportunities for sensory motor development. OT provides
services especially to children who are having difficulty mastering
developmental tasks related to gross and fine motor skills, sensory
processing, handwriting, and learning and attention difficulties.
- At the Homework Club students receive assistance on homework and
work individually on skills they are having difficulty mastering.
Students also have opportunities to play in the Occupational Therapy
Gym, create artwork, use educational computer software, and play
games.
- Private Teaching is provided to students on an as needed basis.
Students meet with an assigned teacher weekly to develop skills and
complete school assignments.
- The GED Program is designed for students who have attempted, but
have not completed high school or for those that have dropped out. The
GED Program is self-paced and uses technology, texts, exercise
materials and one-on-one teacher assistance to help students pass the
GED.
- Academic/Career Counseling and assistance with selecting a
university, college, or vocational program are services that are
provided to young adult and adult Tribal Members.
- Assistance with the selection of private lessons or adult classes
in foreign languages, music and art is available.
- Personal Development Workshops, which provide career/job selection
strategies, interviewing techniques and basic computer skills, are also
available.
- Educational Outreach services available to Tribal Members include
campus tours and orientation, career fairs, and educational
conferences.
