The Coeur d’Alene Tribe Department of Education
Coeur d’Alene leaders and members have long prioritized education as a “game changer” for the Tribe’s ability to create the vibrant future it envisions for its younger and future generations. The Tribe’s Department of Education (DOE), programs include: Early Childhood Development (Child Care, Early Head Start, Head Start); Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) Adult and Youth programs; Adult Education (GED, Employment Assistance); Higher Education (College Scholarships); and Professional Technical (Certificates, Adult Education, College Scholarships).
The Coeur d’Alene Tribe’s Department of Education would like to offer your child the opportunity to participate in these programs while they attend school in the Plummer-Worley School District:
- Johnson O’Malley (JOM) program ensures that students in grades 7-8 are prepared for the transition to high school, and in grades 9-12, students are prepared to pursue high school graduation.
- Imagine The Future Program (ITF) supports students in grades 9-12 who will enter and post-secondary institutions and/or the workforce.
- Native American Career and Technical Education Program (NACTEP) provides training and funding for pre-college academics and career planning for students in grades 9-12 for two-year post-secondary professional technical programs, two-year academic degrees, and preparation for life after high school.
When it comes to making a difference in someone’s life, we believe there is no bigger impact than an education.
