Our program is committed to providing a wide range of instructional materials including access to electronic resources. These resources are in place to support NASA/Library instruction, as well as the school districts vision, mission and goals established by the Board of Education.

*********************************************

All students maintain strict compliance with all ethical and legal regulations. All users must respect intellectual property rights. Student work stored on the network cannot be considered private because teachers and administrators can monitor all use of electronic resources.

*********************************************

We do not provide access to student e-mail. Be assured that your elementary student will not be left alone at the computer.

Nasa classes are broken in three groups with no more than 10 students per group. An instructor will be at the computer station at all times during computer instruction.
