Каждый из членов нашего замечательного совета директоров очень увлечен нашим сообществом и посвящает свое время, талант и ресурсы выполнению нашей миссии. От имени нашей команды, тех, кому мы служим, и нашего сообщества мы благодарим вас за все, что вы делаете!

Tamika LaMere is a citizen of the Little Shell Tribe of Chippewa Indians of Montana and was raised in Great Falls, Montana. Her background encompasses Social Work and Educational Leadership, and she earned a MSW at Eastern Washington University. Since 2016, she has served Spokane Public Schools as an Intervention Specialist, four years as Native Education Coordinator, and now Director of Native Education. Strategic planning and implementation, creating and facilitating professional development have positively elevated representation and visibility of Native American/Alaskan Native communities within SPS. In addition, an emphasis on systems change through building trust and authentic relationships which elevate community needs and voices are the foundation for her work.

Tamika serves on various committees at the district level and continues to seek opportunities outside her role at SPS. Committed to servant leadership, Tamika continues to expand her focus on Native American/Alaskan Native youth in education throughout the greater Spokane community and the state level. Some examples are the Board of Directors for the Martin Luther King Jr. Community Center, Better Health Together, and the YWCA. She also is the Chair for BHT’s Tribal Partners Collaborative, leads the YWCA’s Racial and Social Justice Learning Community, Washington State Native American Education Advisory Committee, Native Educator Cultivation Program, and has been appointed as one of five commissioners for the Washington State Tribal Advisory Committee on Indian Boarding Schools. Tamika will continue to strive towards creating opportunities that respect and honor our Indigenous youth that nurture all aspects of their being so they are able to thrive educationally.
