Abstract

This paper presents the process of conducting an educational needs assessment for Indian children living in the Yakima School District, Yakima, Washington. This study was designed to determine the educational needs of Indian children by involving the parents in the determination of those needs. A Parent Committee was formed to establish suspected needs and to evaluate data submitted from the school district, juvenile authorities, and interviews with members of the Indian community. The committee then made recommendations for future programs.
