NAHM Banner 2022

This November, the Office of Indian Education invites you to celebrate Native American heritage, culture, and tradition. As Arizona is home to 22 Indigenous tribes, we welcome you to educate, advocate and raise greater awareness for the rich traditions and histories of Indigenous communities.

Each week we will release a newsletter that contains a brief message from ADE leadership, resources, tribal flag highlights, community events (federal and state), and a teaching tip! Please use the button below to read the most recent newsletter!
