Program Description:
The Naytahwaush Community School will be a place where
children are respected as individuals, as community members
and as ancestors of a rich cultural heritage. The Naytahwaush
Community School will appreciate the wide resources available
by using them to enhance curriculum through experiential
and service learning activities. The Naytahwaush Community
School will promote the whole child through challenging
academics, community involvement, and fostering healthy
life choices.
Naytahwaush Community School will provide an environment
where learning is relevant to the life environment of the child
and his/her individual needs. High academic expectations
will be fostered through environmental learning, the arts and
cultural exploration. Parents and guardians will play a vital
role in their child?s education; home-visits will be conducted a
minimum of twice yearly, including one visit prior to the start
of each school year to begin the process of establishing a
strong home/school partnership. Community involvement will
also be an integral piece to the education at the Naytahwaush
Community School.
