Title VI Indian Education Program
The Title VI Indian Education Program in MUSD serves the needs of American Indian and Alaska Native students and their families.
Indian Education Cultural Family Engagement Night
Manteca Unified School District hosts multiple Cultural Family Engagement Night events throughout the school year. Each event will focus on specific cultural celebrations or resources. Last year, local agencies were invited to share resources with families. Families also participated in a cultural beading activity hosted by Native C.O.R.E. We are preparing our next Cultural Family Engagement Night on September 26, 2024! See flyer below.
