American Indian Education

Carlton School's Mission is to EDUCATE. EMPOWER. and INSPIRE and our vision is to be.... The Leader in Educational Transformation. We work hard every day to make this mission and vision come alive.

Aligning with that goal; we aim to meet and support the cultural and academic needs of our American Indian Students. This is why we strive to have a successful American Indian Education Program. Carlton offers help and guidance with academics, cultural practices, graduation, and post secondary success.

Carlton A.I.E program works in partnership with Fond Du Lac Tribal Community College to provide the students with academic and cultural programs. In this partnership, the Carlton American Indian students have access to culturally relevant help with post secondary goals.

Our program is implemented under the guidance of our American Indian Education Coordinator, Gracie Studier, and our parent committees.

Tribal enrollment of the student, parent or grandparent qualifies a student for the program services. Signed forms must be on file to qualify for Title VI or JOM services.
