How Do I Qualify?

You can support in the District's development of its program and Title VI Program by completing an ED 506 Eligibility Form.   
 
An Ed 506 Form must be completed, signed, and dated by the child’s parent/guardian to certify an Indian student’s eligibility for the program. A separate form is required for each child. If you have previously submitted an eligibility form, you do not need to submit a new form.

If you would like your child to receive future support and services provided by the Title VI 6 Formula Grant, please complete and return the enclosed Ed 506. You can return the completed form to you student’s school, the district office or email it back to: Native.Ed@Twinriversusd.org
