The Greasy School Board of Education is requesting federal funding for their Cherokee Bilingual Education Program. Due to funding cuts, the program will be reduced to ten demonstration classrooms in northeastern Oklahoma. Ten Cherokee bilingual aides will be hired, and ten Cherokee trainees will enroll in a teacher certification program. The program will focus on kindergarten through third grade and will prioritize bilingual-bicultural education. The program director, Agnes Cowen, has provided details of the revised program in a letter to various officials.
