The letter is from Dillon Platero, the Director of Rough Rock Demonstration School, to Senator Fred R. Harris, informing him of their efforts to obtain a high school facility for the Navajo community. The school board wants a school that reflects Navajo culture and provides vocational training, and they are involving the community in the planning and construction process. The school will be controlled by the Navajo School Board and offer personalized instruction with a low student-teacher ratio. They are seeking funds from the federal government and private initiatives to make their dream a reality. Senator Harris expresses interest in supporting their efforts.
