The StudentsAs a member of the Evangelical Lutheran Education Association (ELEA), our Mission School is a private Christian school serving children from Kindergarten to sixth grade. Through the generous support and donations of Christians from all denominations, the Mission School is able to provide children with educational opportunities that complement the classroom curriculum.
When possible, upon registration, each child receives a backpack containing school supplies (including notebook paper, pencils, glue, and crayons) and a personal hygiene kit (including a bar of soap, toothbrush, toothpaste, and a hand towel). The students often live in areas with limited to no access to electricity and/or water. The Mission addresses this need by providing showers for student use throughout the school year. |

The Curriculum
Navajo Christian Preparatory Academy equips teachers and students with updated learning tools and curriculum. The ACR curriculum for reading, writing, social studies and science was implemented in fall, 2017. Singapore Math is incorporated in all classrooms. A state-of-the-art computer lab allows children to explore through Bookflix, MobyMax, Google Explorer, and many more computer-based options. Interested children and adults can widen their computer experience by attending introductory classes from computer basics to coding.

The Sponsorship Program
Scholarship sponsors play a large role in giving Navajo children the opportunity to attend religious education at the House of Prayer, participate in sports and other after school activities, as well as providing transportation to our Mission School. The program is designed to provide each child with a personal sponsor, who writes to the child and sends special gifts when appropriate. The children also write to the sponsor, and often are able to meet their sponsors if they visit the Mission.
If you are interested in sponsoring a child, perhaps one of the following options is right for you:
Persons who become sponsors will receive a packet including: a picture of the student, a personalized letter from the student, grade listing, date of birth, clothing size, occasional letters and gifts. We need your support to offer these much needed services for our children!
