Native American Student Services
"Providing educational opportunities for our American Indian/Alaska Native children to succeed"
Since 1972, the Native American Student Services (NASS) program has provided educational opportunities and support for American Indian/Alaska Native children in the Lawrence Public Schools. The goal of NASS is to enhance and provide support to the student's overall academic growth and development through programs for students and families.
Presently, the American Indian/Alaska Native student population makes up 4.6% of the Lawrence school district's total enrollment. We serve more than 490 students who represent more than 130 tribal affiliations. Our program is part of the division of Student Intervention Services under the umbrella of Teaching and Learning Services. We work collaboratively within the community and the Lawrence Public Schools to meet strategic goals by being a student-centered environment that ensures all students learn academic and life skills to reach their maximum potential.
