The Education Committee assists the Education department in making recommendations in the implementation of the Education Program and in approving educational grants for students. We provide financial assistance to students in grades K-12 and we provide scholarship awards and student grants to assist enrolled members with financial resources: to meet higher educational goals and to increase employment through training opportunities that enhance job skills and/or technical skills. The Prairie Band Potawatomi Education Department strives to achieve an increase in leadership qualities through supporting all students in grades K-12 and through the promotion of higher education.
