Congrats to Kayla Begay and Kayle James. Both graduates were awarded the Navajo Nation's Chief Manuelito Scholarship. In order to qualify for this scholarship, students must have both a high GPA and ACT score. They must also have completed a course in Navajo language and Navajo government prior to graduation. This scholarship provides $3500 per term. Congratulations!

Good morning football families, it’s time to gear up for our football camp. We are looking for help and donations of time and food. Any snacks, drinks, or help with purchasing and preparing meals for the boys is greatly appreciated. Please reach out to me directly. Anything is appreciated, even if it is just a box of granola bars or a case of water/Gatorade, I’d like to keep these boys well fed. The dates for the camp are July 24th through July 27th. We want the boys to eat dinner at home and arrive on July 24th by 6:00 pm. We will handle all meals after they arrive. Camp concludes on the 27th at 6:00 pm. At that time all parents are invited to eat dinner with us, and this will be our parent meeting to start the season. You will have the opportunity to meet the coaching staff and we will go over the expectations, program goals, and answer any questions.   The boys will be sleeping at the school which means they need to pack all their toiletries, clothing, and bedding for that time. If they want an air mattress or other comforts, they need to provide that for themselves. If they have any special circumstances like medications or dietary needs, please reach out directly. Two important reminders: First, the boys need a NEW PHYSICAL. They may attend camp without a new physical but will not be allowed to participate in the new season until they have obtained their blue card from the school. Our first practice of the new season is on July 29th at 4:00 pm. We need all boys ready to participate on that date so we can get their required practices completed in order to issue their equipment. Every day delayed is a day they cannot get in their pads. Second, we will scrimmage Hopi on August 13th. All boys must have their required practices completed in order to participate in that scrimmage. Thank you everyone! We are excited to get this season underway! -Coach Roes-
