TSE'YI'GAI HIGH is a Title I public high school that is part of the GALLUP school district, located in PUEBLO PINTADO, NM with about 86 students offering grade levels from 8th Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 7 teachers, TSE'YI'GAI HIGH has a student/teacher ratio of about 12:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Tse’yi’gai High School is a public secondary school located in the remote community of Pueblo Pintado, New Mexico. Part of the Gallup-McKinley County Schools district, the institution serves a predominantly Native American student population, reflecting the rich cultural heritage and values of the Navajo Nation. The school’s name, which translates to "White Streak of Rock" in Diné, underscores its deep-rooted connection to the local landscape and the community it serves.

The school is dedicated to providing a supportive educational environment that bridges academic rigor with cultural preservation. Because of its isolated location in the high desert, Tse’yi’gai High often functions as a vital community hub, emphasizing close-knit relationships between students, faculty, and families. Through its curriculum and extracurricular programs, the school strives to prepare its graduates for post-secondary success while fostering a strong sense of identity and resilience in its students.
