History
The organization was established in 1979 as Shiprock Alternative Schools, Inc. [6]
Northwest Middle & High School
It was formerly known as Shiprock Northwest Alternative High School. [7] Its original purpose was to cater to students who encountered problems in traditional schools. [6]
Prior to 2012 the school system began seeking a conventional school counselor, which it hired by 2012. Alysa Landry of Albuquerque Journal wrote that "Adding the position was part of the schools’ effort to change their image from an alternative education setting to a more mainstream environment." [8]
