In an editorial today, The Farmington Daily-Times praises the Navajo Nation council for overriding a veto and restoring $2 million in funds for a tribal school.

The funds will be used to make construction and repairs at the Navajo Preparatory School. "Navajo Prep is arguably the best school on the Navajo Nation," the paper says.

"It, and those who graduate from there, is something of which the Dine can be proud."

The council overrode President Kelsey Begaye's veto of the funds last week.
