Mission Statement The Menominee Tribal Education Department cooperatively provides assistance and support to Menominees and Community Resident who are in need of preparation to advance in the work force to pursue higher educational opportunities.
Department Overview Today's educational institutions offer an unbelievable variety of educational opportunities to persons seeking educational advancement. There are also many opportunities for financial assistance in pursuing your educational goals. Unfortunately, the research and paper work involved during efforts to acquire information about those opportunities can be confusing and often times overwhelming. Many times prospective students are unaware of deadlines for getting paperwork in and risk the chance of losing out on valuable financial opportunities. That is why the Tribal Education department adopted the mission to cooperatively provide assistance and support to Menominee and Community residents who are in need of preparation to advance in the work force or to pursue higher educational opportunities! The Menominee Tribal Education Department employs a concerned, caring, and qualified staff, that provides a number of services to help alleviate the stress of wading through related paperwork. Department staff will lend assistance in filing for admissions to colleges and universities, and applying for financial aid and career counseling. Information regarding what programs institutions have to offer, as well as employment opportunities in a chosen career field is also available. In addition, assistance with electronically filing the “Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)” is available. See below for contact information.
