Land Acknowledgment
The Board of Directors and staff of Desert Sage School acknowledge the original caretakers of the desert in which we dwell. The indigenous habitation of what is now known as the Tucson Basin dates back approximately 12,500 years, likely representing the oldest, continuously inhabited area in what is now the United States. Contemporary Native people that constitute our ethnographic history include the Akimel O’odham, Apache, Hopi, Maricopa, Yaqui, Tohono O’odham, Yavapai, and Zuni people. We encourage everyone in the Desert Sage School network to embrace this, or a similarly appropriate, acknowledgment as we dwell together on this land.
Our Vision:
A world where truth is highly valued, in which all youth are safe to learn, work and play together toward the goal of achieving their full human potential.
