Who's eligible

The child must be in K-12th grade for the current school year and "Must be Ottawa Tribe enrolled." The custodial parent applies with each child's tribal enrollment card and proof of school enrollment (public, private, or homeschool curriculum). Receipts may include only school clothing and supplies, not school fees, food, drinks, or household items.
