The Oregon Department of Education (ODE) , Indian Education/Civil Rights Program has historically development of materials in cooperation with the Oregon Indian Education Association (OIEA). This has proved effective and I would propose that the success of this proposed project would be enhanced if ODE’s Indian Education coordinator worked with the OIEA to form a committee modeled after their Curriculum Committee.

If the project advances to the point were we would be applying for Federal Funding, it would be appropriate to reach out community members with this expertise; specifically Floy Pepper, Norrine Smokey-Smith and Robey Clark. |
