We are very excited to kick off another great school year tomorrow, Aug 14th!
Welcome back to another exciting school year! A few new things include: Adding a new morning Hangar 36 bus route (if you rode in PM last year you will ride in AM as well). Bell to bell cell phone policy- no use for PreK-12th grades from the time they get on campus until 3:00 PM, student arrival time of 7:45 AM at the earliest (buses will run about 5 minutes later in the morning this year and arrive at 7:45). First bell for JH/HS is 8:05 and tardy bell rings at 8:10. Elementary students will need to be in class by 8:05. Breakfast is served from 7:45-8:05. New bell schedule for JH/HS by this link https://5il.co/3nhiq . Schedules are available on oked.sylogist.com/Navajo and you may email rlemaster@navajo.k12.ok.us for login information or if you have a schedule change request those will go to new Counselor Mrs. Ebner by using this link: https://forms.gle/aMYZ6ahYAFVFbBFE6. We also have a new attendance policy where 10 absences or more in a semester and a student will not receive credit for that class. Meet the teacher is from 5:00-7:00 PM on Tuesday August 12th and Meet the Indian starts at 6:00 PM that night in the new gym for a chance for all to meet our HS athletes and coaches. School supply lists, student handbook, calendar, etc. can be found at www.navajo.k12.ok.us Reminder VOTECH Students first day of school is Wednesday August 13th and all other students first day of school is Thursday August 14th.
In Accordance with Oklahoma Senate Bill 139, and with the full support and approval of the Navajo Board of Education, our school is implementing a bell-to-bell policy forbidding students from using cellphones, and other personal electronic devices, during the school day. Please see the linked letter for more information, including exceptions. We want what's best for our students, and we, and the state legislature, believe that this is it.

Navajo Public Schools would like to thank the Altus Air Force for providing a $2000 grant for our STEM program. The funds will go toward enhancing our outdoor STEM classroom with rain water catching system, also know as rain harvesting. This will allow our native to Oklahoma plants to grow and will provide rainwater for many more outdoor classroom projects. Again thank you Altus Air Force.
Free sports physicals for Navajo 7th-12th grade students will be held in the high school building this Saturday, July 26th, at 9:00 a.m. Hard copy packets will be available at the school or this link will take you to the full packet: https://5il.co/3mccq
