It presents a reimagined educational system that supports Native students' academic pursuits while preserving their cultural identity. The framework has five pillars: embracing Native educational sovereignty, decolonizing leadership practices, prioritizing Indigenous knowledge, culturally affirming practices, and meaningful collaboration. This framework provides non-Native school leaders with an operational structure and strategies to ensure Native students leave school with their language, culture, and identities intact. It helps non-Native school leaders address systemic barriers faced by Native students while honoring and embracing the rich tapestry of Indigenous cultures and educational sovereignty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ralph M.
