The N.A.T.I.V.E. Central Campus project will enlarge our capacity to provide quality professional vocational educational opportunities. Together, with it’s satellite sites, N.A.T.I.V.E. District can offer it’s students additonal vocational programs of quality, including dual credit college level classes. The No Child Left Behind Act challenges school districts to improve student achievement through the use of technology, to raise student technology literacy, and to ensure that teachers integrate technology into the curriculum effectively.
Currently, N.A.T.I.V.E. District sites are connected virtually enabling curriculum sharing and college classes through interactive video conferencing distance learning between sites. Because of the extreme distances and isolated rural environment, N.A.T.I.V.E. District built, over the past three years, a powerful technology infrastructure , Video Conferencing Distance Learning Network, by constructing a microwave network of 100mbps bandwidth connecting all eight N.A.T.I.V.E. sites.
With the addition of four buildings with classrooms that will include admin offices, Hospitality hogans, Geo-dome (greenhouse) and hogan, Small Business Enterprise Construction Building, Heavy Equipment land training area, Plant Science land lab, Solar and Wind training, the N.A.T.I.V.E. District Central Campus will provide the additional applied training students will need to succeed. All curriculum materials created will be in alignment with the Arizona State standards.
