“Holm and Holm have been involved as practitioners and action-researchers in Navajo language education for over 30 years. Here they describe the growth and development of bilingual education on the Navajo Reservation, and resultant outcomes for Navajo students, educators and communities. From the ground-breaking efforts in bilingual education at Rock Point, to recent work in Navajo immersion programs, this article shows not only how learning is mediated by language and culture in the Navajo context, but also the critical conditions needed to sustain genuine two-language education.
