Educational Technology
@ SASI |
Educational
Technology has come a long way at Shiprock Associated Schools, Inc.
since 1993 when the first Local Area Network was installed on campus.
|
|
|
Over
$2 million was expended during the construction of the new facility
to create an even more effective educational technology component
for our students and staff. Our philosophy at SASI regarding educational
technology is that it should be seen and utilized as yet another tool
in the arsenal of our teachers and students.

We
feel privileged to have, what we believe to be, the best technology
