Overview
Chichiltah-Jones Ranch Community School serves the educational needs of kindergarten through eighth-grade students in our Navajo community. We empower our Dine’ and Zuni youth using the principles of Natsáhákees, Nahat ́á, Iiná, and doo Siihasin, helping them become analytical, critical thinkers and leaders of tomorrow.
Our holistic learning environment encourages students and families to practice the concept of Hózhó to address their physical, mental and spiritual well-being. Eating healthy, exercising, and maintaining their mental health helps our students reach their full academic potential. Chichiltah-Jones Ranch is a family school where our community of learners will:
- Understand computers, as well as the technologies of today and tomorrow.
- Work cooperatively with global communities.
- Communicate effectively with other cultures and share the democratic principles of life, independence and generosity.
- Acquire life skills and attitudes that lead to better quality lives.
- Prepare themselves for the jobs of the future; and
- Solve problems in flexible, adaptable ways through a variety of talents.
Chichiltah-Jones Ranch Community School provides academic support programs and services to ensure every student succeeds in their educational plan. We strongly encourage our students to take advantage of all enrichment opportunities and families to be involved in the learning process by participating in school activities, meetings and conferences.
Our mission is to teach students the valuable and necessary skills that prepare them for graduation, college and beyond. Chichiltah-Jones Ranch Community School develops our young scholars into lifelong learners. We follow the College and Career Readiness Standards for English Language Arts, mathematics, and science, as well as Dine’ Language/Culture and Government/History.
Strategic Transformation of Education Plan (STEP)
Chichiltah-Jones Ranch Community School has implemented the Strategic Transformation of Education Plan initiative – a digital learning portal with a blended learning approach. Our students can maximize this opportunity by accessing the digital learning portal with a 1:1 student-laptop usage ratio. This approach gives our students the advantage of integrated applications, and a robust learning strategy.
Chichiltah-Jones Ranch Community School's team of dedicated educators are committed to the growth and development of your children – tomorrow’s leaders.
