Partnerships

Recognizing that BIE has worked in isolation for a significant number of years, it is critically important to establish beneficial partnerships to create quality sustainable educational opportunities for our youth. By utilizing existing partnership venues it has become apparent that the educational benefits for our native students have become invaluable and the emphasis on establishing future Partnerships that will best benefit our Native students, teachers and administrators is encouraged as well as necessary.
