Title VI Indian Education Formula Grant is a federal grant the Salamanca City Central School District applies for annually to receive and allocate monies from the Government to provide services to our Native American students in the district. The grant is administered by the SCCSD Title VI Project Director that works closely with the Title VI Indigenous Parent Committee (IPC) as well as the Seneca Nation to maintain compliance for the grant. Here at Salamanca, we offer an extraordinarily unique variety of Personnel supports, culturally related academics/trips, and cultural/traditional presenters/authors/artistes for our Native American students.

Seven (7) Personnel positions under the Title VI Formula Grant at SCCSD were developed to support our local educational agency (LEA) in their efforts to better support Elementary and Secondary School programs that serve Indigenous students.
