First Lady Biden Continues Visit On Navajo Nation
First Lady Jill Biden today will visit the Hunters Point Boarding School in St. Michaels near Window Rock. Biden, also a college professor, is slated to meet with students at the school, where remote learning continues amid the pandemic. School officials say they hope to return to in-person learning by the fall, the AP reports. Remote learning has largely been the standard on the Navajo Nation; the Tuba City Unified School District closed in-person learning opportunities earlier this month after a stay-at-home order was reissued reservation-wide. Biden today will also visit a vaccination site at the Tsehootsooi Medical Center in Fort Defiance, according to White House officials. Heavy police presence and impacted traffic can be expected today near Window Rock, the Navajo Police Department says.
