About the program
The Native American Education Project office at Amphitheater Public Schools supports the programs already in place at your child's school. We help the schools to monitor Native American Students attendance, academics, and social situations. We are available to assist in tutoring at the school sites. We offer assistance in locating help for all Native American families located within Amphi School district. We can assist in finding many agencies that can offer assistance for many situations.
