Mission & Vision

Mission
As the educational arm of Eight Public Television, ASSET (Arizona School Services through Educational Technology) is a trusted PreK-12 resource that uses the most innovative educational technologies to enrich the lives of students, educators, and parents through quality outreach programs and services that educate, inform, and inspire.

We specialize in supporting educators and students in the classroom, and families at home by creating and connecting quality PBS educational content to national and state academic and professional development standards. We help our constituents improve student performance through standards and research-based content that is relevant and engaging. We accomplish this through the power of noncommercial television, the Internet, radio, other media, outreach activities, and a variety of community-based initiatives.

In partnership with PBS, Eight, and Arizona State University, ASSET serves as a trusted, independent catalyst for educational improvement.

Vision
ASSET will become an essential service available to and valued by all Arizona educators, students, and families, guided by unique educational needs, and aided by our deep-rooted presence in the PreK-12 community.

Capitalizing on our unique role, we will promote, create, and stimulate the use of PBS educational materials in ways that will improve educational opportunities for Arizona educators, students, and their families.
