SPS Governing Board

Shonto Preparatory Schools are accredited by the North Central Association (NCA) of Colleges and Schools. We serve the areas of Shonto, Ts’ah Bii’kin, Tonalea, Kaibeto, Tall Mountain, Black Mesa, White Mesa, Kayenta, Navajo Mountain, and Forest Lake, all within a 60-mile radius.

It is our school wide goal to teach our students to become productive and capable learners. We want to see our students Meet or Exceed on State and local assessments. Working as a cohesive academic community, this goal is obtainable. As academic facilitators we will continue to teach the Arizona College and Career Readiness Standards while placing emphasis on cultural values. We are most proud of the opportunity we have as educators to work with such a culturally enriched student body. We will work to inspire our student’s intellectual abilities so they can be productive citizens in today and tomorrow’s society.

Our plan is to integrate project-based learning and technology using cultural teaching methods across the curriculum. Through professional development our goal is to become a high-quality school with a rigorous academic environment.
