The mission of the Education Department is to offer educational opportunities to lifelong learners of all ages in order to promote Community self sufficiency and preserve the Onk Akimel O'Odham himdak and the Xalychidom Piipaash Huudioshxish for the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community.
Vision
Salt River Education - our Purpose, our Passion, our Pride
Under the leadership of Dr. Dale Frederick, the Education Department's 300+ outstanding employees serve the Community in our schools and through a variety educational programs. We strive to offer services that are innovative, culturally relevant and academically rigorous. Officially called the Division of Education, we were established by Tribal Ordinance in 2000 as part of the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community's long range Educational Plan. Since 2000, the Department has experienced explosive growth marked by the opening of Salt River High School in 2004 and achieving national accreditation for Salt River Elementary School and Salt River High School.
We invite you to explore our website and see why we are the place where people want to learn and work!
