Empowering Student Learning Through Quality Education

Kaibeto Boarding School serves kindergarten through eighth-grade students in the 56th Chapter of our Great Navajo Nation. We are committed to excellence in character, Diné language and culture, and academic achievement. Our learning environment prepares students for college and career readiness through the principles of Nitsáhákees, Nahat ́á, Iiná, and doo Siihaasin.

Our collaborative teams include families, faculty, staff, and community members who support students in mastering the valuable and necessary skills to create a community of lifelong learners and leaders. We encourage the practice of Hozho to address students' physical, mental, and spiritual well-being.

Kaibeto Boarding School uses several assessments to measure our students' progress and achievement levels. Academic support services include our summer enrichment program, special needs services, and after-school tutoring services to help students stay on track toward graduation. We also emphasize the importance of understanding technology, engaging with global communities, respecting the environment, and ensuring our students are prepared for the future.
