In addition, computer and technology applications are woven into the very fabric of the curriculum.
An exciting new chapter in the DATA success story is being written with the brand new, state-of-the-art facility. Investor confidence in the school resulted in the sale of an 8.4 million dollar bond issue that financed the new building.

The new facility allows for extensive access to the latest computer technology as an authentic learning tool, enabling students to address unprecedented career challenges and global opportunities facing them in the 21st century.
