PIE - Philips Indian Educators

Meeting in Person

Meets Fridays (twice a month) from 9:00-10:30 am

Committee description: The Mission of Phillips Indian Educators is to dramatically improve education for Indian students by ensuring that all educators of Indian students are knowledgeable enough to competently incorporate indigenous best practices into their teaching, and to continuously work towards a Native consensus of what those best practices are and should be.

Committee goals/Vision:

We see Native students once again being young people who do what they love and love what they do, who have a passion for life-long learning and a commitment to strengthening their community. 

PIE meets bi-weekly for 1.5 hours with an additional monthly meeting with the MPS Superintendent and MPS Board of Directors meeting (as needed). 

PIE also co-facilitates professional development for teachers and administrators and leads the community Attendance Campaign.
