My Project

Our SEL and Counseling classroom is a safe haven for all who enter. My students thoroughly enjoy, and love to play and utilize the available SEL gadgets. I continuously strive to provide the needed resources to our students. Donors Choose has been a tremendous asset to our school.

My goal is to ensure all students at Indian Wells are aware they are cared for and safe in our hands.

I would like to ensure they have the necessary tools to be resilient, to know how to persevere and to be positive.

As young people growing up on the Navajo Nation, with limited resources, they have to work twice as hard to meet their ambitions. Luckily, they persevere, work hard and embrace their traditions to keep them strong. Life on the reservation with limited water and electricity teaches one to be resourceful and our students are girl scouts and boy scouts.

We would like to extend a huge thank you to our potential donors. Your kindness is very much appreciated.
