Significance: The buildings of the Tuba City Boarding School exhibit modest use of the neo-classical revival style in an early 20th century Bureau of Indian Affairs Boarding School. Built between 1904 and 1905, they comprised the original dormitory complex and were the largest of the first permanent buildings constructed for this educational complex. They remained in use until 1971.
