St. Stephens Indian School

To Walk with Dignity, Knowledge, and Wisdom

​

Who We Are

​

We are St. Stephens Indian School, and our students and campus are the pulse of this community. As educators and community members, we work together to create an environment that promotes a desire to learn and succeed. See how we do it here.

​

Our Vision

​

All students will be provided a safe, success-oriented, culturally responsive educational environment, which will develop responsible, respectful, productive, and well-adjusted individuals in an ever-changing world.

​

Our Philosophy

​

We at St. Stephens Indian School believe in the simple philosophy of life that has sustained the Indian people through the centuries:

​

"To walk with dignity, knowledge, and wisdom, to live in harmony with earth and everything on it, to acknowledge with thanks the Great Spirit."

​

We believe that St. Stephens Indian School exists first and foremost for teaching and learning. Our students will be taught the techniques for living and leadership in modern society within a curriculum framework, which includes the art, language, and beliefs of American Indian culture and heritage. 

​

We believe that all students can learn when provided with a positive, success oriented, and safe environment. Students, teachers, administrators, parents, and community are equally important in the learning process.
