🌱 A Note About Who We Are
We are not recreating a Western model of schooling.
We are reclaiming Indigenous education.
At Six Directions, we believe education should affirm our languages, values, and futures. Our work is guided by love, sovereignty, community, and a belief that every Native youth deserves to thrive in their full brilliance.
Lottery applications for next school year will be received on a rolling basis, and on an assigned date, the number of applications will be compared to the number of available seats. If we have more applications than open seats for any grade, then a random lottery will be held which will determine who is offered enrollment and who is placed on a wait list.
