Education Committee

A large part of the Education Committee’s work is managing the Alvina Frisbie Scholarship. This scholarship is available to our Tribal members and can be used for vocational, 2-year, 4-year, and post graduate studies. A recipient is eligible for up to four awards.

Each student is required to volunteer a minimum of 20 hours prior to each application.
