Maine Indian Education

Maine Indian Education (MIE) is an indigenous school system in Maine, supported by funding by the Bureau of Indian Education (BIE). There are three schools in the system: there are three school boards, one for each school, and each school has its own principal, while MIE has a collective superintendent. The MIE is akin to a main "union of towns" school system where multiple school administrative units share a superintendent but otherwise operate separately. The superintendent office is in Calais.

The three schools in the system are: Indian Island School, Indian Township School, and Sipayik Elementary School (formerly Beatrice Rafferty School).
