Speczal Navajo Program History Mrs. Betty B. Hollowell Leader, Navajo Program 1952 will always be a very special year for the students of the Special Navajo program. The thirty-four fifth year students, who make up the first graduating class, probably will not be the largest class that the Special Program will haveg but the class of 1952 will always stand out as the first group to achieve its goal. These fifth year students were among the first 140 Navajo boys and girls to arrive at Chilocco in the fall of 1947. This Class' desire for an education has been expressed in many ways during these five years. This group, their fellow students and their teachers helped develop their own classrooms. Each year there has been mental, physical, social, emotional and vocational growth. These students have pioneered in proving themselves capable of adjusting to off-reservation living. Each year measurable marks of progress have been made. Old pupils have returned to the campus and new ones have come with them. The boys and girls have made many adjustments in their daily living. They have participated in many campus activities. These students' industry and persistence express their satisfaction and happiness for the educational opportunities that Chilocco offers to them and other Indian boys and girls. These students have made places for themselves on the campus and in nearby communities. The 34 members of the Special class of 1952 have completed vocational training in Home Service, Carpentry, Dry-cleaning, Painting, Shoe Repair, Power Plant Operation, Blacksmith and Welding and Filling Station Operation. The members of this group are prepared to go out on a job and earn a living on or off the reservation. Your future looks bright because each of you has been offered employment in the vocation in which you have been trained. As you go out from Chilocco you will have a real opportunity to make a place for yourself and for other Indian boys and girls who will follow you. You can have no finer objective than the one that your class has chosen. Strive to make a place for another.
