The purpose of the Native American Student Information System (NASIS) investment is to collect and store student data. This data will be used to improve student achievement through a student information data management system for BIE-funded schools. In addition, the data supports statutory and regulatory reporting requirements. School Year 2006-2007 was the first year of the Bureau of Indian Education’s (BIE) NASIS. The current NASIS system is implemented and utilized by 186 bureau-funded schools and peripheral dormitories, Albuquerque Service Center (ASC), Education Resource Centers (ERC) and Central BIE offices. NASIS is a web-based centralized Application Service Provider (CSP) provided student information system meeting the unique geographical, environmental, and technological requirements and constraints of the BIE’s national school system located in 23 states, with approximately 46,000 students in grades kindergarten to twelve as well as Family and Child Education (FACE). The Indian School Equalization Program (ISEP) is the base school program funding source for all bureau-funded schools. The BIE is comprised of a Central office located in Washington, DC, that includes the Office of the Director and the Associate Deputy Director, Division of Performance and Accountability (DPA) located in Albuquerque, NM, three Associate Deputy Director Offices, Education Resource Centers nationwide, and 186 schools and dormitories in the continental United States.
