Check out our draft agenda for Youth Day on Friday, April 25th!

In keeping with its continued commitment to higher education, the Wisconsin Indian Education Association is pleased to provide scholarship assistance to American Indian students attending institutions of higher education.

This scholarship is achievement-based, not based on financial need. Applicants must be Wisconsin residents.

You are cordially invited to advertise your school, business, organization, or service in the 2024 WIEA Digital Conference Booklet. It will provide you with visibility, specific audience impact, and effective communication to the people who will attend the conference. Your information will reach educators, students, and parents all across Wisconsin. The digital conference booklet is the attendee’s constant reference guide listing all meetings and social functions and is also a source of referral after our event.

This year WIEA is collaborating with the Lac du Flambeau community, College of Menominee Nation, and the Lac Courte Oreilles University to host the annual Youth Day event!

The event will be held on Friday, April 26th. Registration and breakfast will take place from 7:45-8:30.
Closing ceremonies will take place at 3:00 pm.

Middle school and high school students (accompanied by a chaperone) will participate in a full day of activities and programming. Activities will be geared toward seasonal activities and exploration of higher education topics.

Registration will be free. Breakfast and lunch will be provided to all students and chaperones. Lodging will be the responsibility of the respective organizations.

The deadline to register is April 5th.

Do you know of a K-12 student who is excelling in Indian education?
