History

It was established in 1959 and is now one of two high schools in Tuba City. It directly adjoins Greyhills Academy High School, which opened in 1972; the two schools are separated by an iron fence and are traditional scholastic and athletic rivals.

In 1974, Tuba City High was funded by both the school district and by the Bureau of Indian Affairs, with two separate principals but with local and boarding school students attending the same classes.{{cite news|title=Boarding schools provide home from home: Tuba City Boarding School|newspaper=Arizona Daily Sun|place=Flagstaff, Arizona|date=1974-04-27|page=[https://www.newspapers.com/clip/161673333/ C8]|via=Newspapers.com}}
