NAVIT - St. Johns High School

NAVIT (Northern Arizona Vocational Institute of Technology) at St. Johns High School is a career and technical education (CTE) program designed to provide high school students in Northern Arizona with hands-on training and industry-recognized certifications. Rather than serving as a traditional high school, NAVIT acts as a specialized district that partners with local schools to offer vocational courses. This allows students to gain practical experience in high-demand fields such as automotive technology, health sciences, welding, cosmetology, and information technology while simultaneously earning their high school diplomas.

The program is structured to bridge the gap between secondary education and the workforce or post-secondary technical institutions. By integrating professional equipment and curricula into the high school experience, NAVIT empowers students to graduate with tangible skills that improve their employability and career readiness. Serving the broader Snowflake and St. Johns region, the institute focuses on economic development by preparing local youth for sustainable, skilled trades, ensuring they are competitive candidates in today’s evolving job market.
