Welcome to Jenks Public Schools Native American Education Program. Our program is a grant-funded program for those students with evidence of Native American descent. The program operates with guidance from Title VI and Johnson-O'Malley Indian Parent Committees and Jenks Public Schools. Your involvement in the Parent Committee is the backbone of this program. You are invited to attend all Committee meetings.
