Abstract	Providing current information on the status of the School Management Options Project (involvement by the end of Fiscal Year 1975 of at least one-fourth of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, BIA, schools in a management system chosen by their American Indian clients), this report presents information relative to the BIA's overall strategy for project implementation and the results of project implementation during 1975. Specifically, this report includes the following: (1) BIA Central and Area Office responsibilities; (2) a summary of the January 1976 Area Project Managers Meeting; (3) an overview of the Project's 1975 external evaluation; (4) an explanation of the way in which the Presidential Secretarial Objective is to be achieved; (5) the spin-off results of the BIA's information dissemination package (use by BIA Agency and Area personnel and Indian advisory school boards, increased parent participation in school matters, and college requests for the materials); (6) problem areas (Area/Agency Office difficulties in obtaining formal tribal resolutions and in presenting the contracting option as only one of several options); (7) a Bureau-wide summary of the control of Indian education in BIA schools (1975); (8) the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act and its effect upon the Project; (9) the BIA's operating plans for the Presidential/Secretarial Objective information system (time frame).
