The Johnson-O'Malley (JOM) Act Program

The Johnson-O'Malley (JOM) Act authorizes the Secretary of the Interior, through the Bureau of Indian Education (BIE), to enter into contracts with Tribes, Tribal organizations, States, schools, and private non-sectarian organizations to address the education needs of Indian students. The BIE is proposing to update its JOM regulations to implement the JOM Act updates and address comments received in response to the proposed rule published on March 21, 2018 (83 FR 12301), and also put the regulations in a more reader-friendly format. The proposed rule was published in the Federal Register.

The Redwood Valley Rancheria Education Department assists tribal members of all ages with their educational development. This broadly covers scholastic opportunities, tutoring services, college and career preparation, Pomo language and singing classes, regalia making classes, basket weaving classes and beading classes.

​

After school tutoring is provided by the Redwood Valley Rancheria Education Coordinator and Ukiah Unified School District Title VI Counselors.

Kajukenbo youth martial art classes are held every other week on Mondays and Wednesdays beginning at 4:30 pm.
