See and hear why the Diné Dual Language program is so important to Central Consolidated School District. The Navajo Dual Language program at Eva B. Stokely Elementary School and Naschitti Elementary started at Eva B. Stokely 17 years ago with kindergarteners.
The Diné Dual Language Program is a unique school for Kindergarten through Fifth grade to be immersed in the Diné Language and Culture.
Dual Language Immersion is designed to develop high academic achievement in two languages, preservative Diné language and biliterate proficiency, and cross-cultural skills.
Diné Dual Language school helps to strengthen self-identity, self-awareness, and self-sufficiency.
The curriculum strengthens their vocabulary in two languages, and it strengthens our students cognitive processing and abilities.
The goals of the program are to provide instruction in two languages early and to give our students invaluable skills they’ll use by the time they reach high school.
We would like to thank our Navajo Dual Language teachers and students for allowing us to take a look at how they learn.
Outstanding thank you to Ms. Janet Charles at EBS, Ms. Justine Jones at EBS, Ms. Ursula Bedah at EBS, Bernita Bedah at NES, Eva B. Stokely Elementary Principal Ms. Roxanne Lee and Naschitti Elementary Principal Candace Keams-Benally.
