Education
The Ministry of Education operates public schools. Palau High School in Koror is the country's only public high school, so children from this community go there.[2]
The Ngiwal state scholarship offers two scholarships. One for becoming a Palauian citizen, and one for a student at a college, university, or vocational school.[3]
