Principal's Message
Yá'át'ééh and welcome to the home of the Warriors!
Good evening parents/guardians of CCS,
February is coming to a close as I have started my 7th week of being Principal here at CCS. We just got reading and math interim test completed for 3rd-8th graders. WIDA testing was completed as well for Kindergarten through 8thgrades. However, please be ready for the 5th and 8th grade Science test coming up in March; and the reading and math Spring (big test) for 3rd-8th graders coming up in April.
Please continue to have your child/ren in school, attendance is important, it is hard to make up days when they are missing school which affects grades and interrupts learning. Please call and send excuses to Marsh too when you child/ren is missing school. Thank you so much for working with us, if any questions or concerns please come see me or email,
Ms. Irowena Whitehair, Principal

Strategic Transformation of Education Plan (STEP)
During the 2023-2024 school year, Crownpoint Community School implemented the Strategic Transformation of Education Plan (STEP) initiative – a digital learning portal with a blended learning approach. Our students can maximize this opportunity by accessing the digital learning portal with a 1:1 student-laptop usage ratio. This approach gives our students the advantage of integrated applications, and a robust learning strategy.
Crownpoint Community School’s team of dedicated educators are committed to the growth and development of your children - tomorrow’s leaders.
