Paul (1930-2005), the first Native American from the Tohono O’odham Nation to

professor of early childhood education for over three decades. </span></p>

Paul’s work when she presented a paper on early childhood education programs
(Head Start; Follow Through) for the 1988 Conference on The Intergenerational
Transfer of Cognitive Skills (Paul, 1991a). As an adult educator I was
especially interested in her paper in which she referred to the importance of
education for parents and noted that “Over the years of intervention, both Head
Start and Follow Through have demonstrated that parents are their children’s
first teachers” (p. 38).</span></p>

importance of parent’s education in the development of children’s education was
documented further in a paper for the Indian Nations at Risk Task Force (Paul,
1991b). Here she argued, “</span><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Finally, it seems that not only do preschools and public
schools have to successfully solicit parent involvement, but they must also
offer the parents educational and self-improvement opportunities…Many early

literacy level in predicting the literacy success of the child as support for
parent literacy school programs….The Colville Tribes of Washington State have
used Title V funds to increase their parents literacy skill levels and also to
train the parents in specific strategies for helping their children with
schoolwork. This has helped them bring many of their</span><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:rgb(102,102,102)"> </span><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">students up to grade level” (p. 5).</span></p>

passing in 2005, the University of Arizona noted that she, “… lived in two
culturally defined worlds. In one, her parents brought her up understanding
Tohono O'odham practices, which included her grandmother's knowledge of herbal
remedies. In the other, she traveled across the nation to educate parents and
teachers with the mindset to create a world full of possibilities for children.
Paul noted, 'It's been like walking a fence to live in two different worlds. I
can understand the view on one side as well as the other’. She interlinked both
cultures in her day to day life, her work and in her many published works such
as, 'Cultural Aspects that Affect the Indian Student in Public Schools' written
in 1983 and 'Early Childhood Education in American Indian and Alaska Native
Communities' written in 1992.”</span></p>

2005 the United States Congressional Record published a statement by the Hon.
Rau L.M. Grijalva entitled HONORING DR. ALICE S. PAUL in which he recounted
many of Paul’s achievements: “</span><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">Mr. Speaker, I rise today in honor of

extended the power of public education far beyond her own experience. Her focus
was early childhood education, and she traveled widely helping communities improve
their early childhood educational systems. Her work had direct impact on the
lives of young children and their families throughout the United States, from
rural Alaska to urban New Jersey. After her retirement she even served as a
consultant to the Taiwanese educational system.” </span><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Open Sans",serif;color:rgb(102,102,102)"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;line-height:12pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black"></span></p>
