Greetings, my name is Simone Frazier; I am Navajo (Dine) and from a small community called Kits’iili (on top of Black Mesa), in northeast Arizona. I am an alumnus of the graduating class of 2017. I started my Indigenous Education at Native American Community Academy (NACA) in the 6th grade and graduated in 2017. I returned to NACA as an Early Childhood practicum student, while attending Southwestern Indian Polytechnic Institute (SIPI). After graduating from SIPI with my Associate in Early Childhood, I began working at NACA as a Special Education Educational Assistant (EA). I am now the Kindergarten Education Assistant.
