| Abstract: | This report presents information on the cost required to repair Native American educational facilities, funded by the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the condition of the school buildings, adequacy of the school environment for instruction, and the extent to which schools can meet future technology and communication requirements. The total repairs funding needed would be $754 million. Compared to schools nationally, BIA schools are generally in poorer physical condition, often lack key facilities requirements for education reform, have unsatisfactory environmental factors, and are less able to support computer and communications technology. Three appendixes provide: (1) a description of the methodology used; (2) a list of BIA schools for school year 1996-1997, by state, (name of school, city located, grades, enrollment FY 1997, percentage change since FY1987, and since FY1992, and number of portable classrooms); (3) comments from the Department of the Interior.
