Holbrook Unified School District #3 - Helping Unique Students Develop

WE ARE ROADRUNNERS! Alyse Marrietta was crowned October 9, 2021 as Miss Indian Arizona. Alyse is a 2014 graduate of Holbrook High School. She is the grand-daughter of Marjorie and Raul Mendoza. Alyse Marrietta, from the Gila River Indian Community was crowned Miss Indian Arizona, 2021-22 on October 9, 2021 making her the 60th Miss Indian Arizona. Alyse is the 25-year-old daughter of Kenneth Marrietta and Natalie Mendoza. She is a Magma Cum Laude graduate from Arizona State University Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts. Alyse plans on returning to begin graduate work in the field of American Indian Studies, as she feels this is where her instincts are leading her. Alyse interests include learning more about film making and video editing. She enjoys writing movie scripts and thinking about million-dollar movie ideas! She hikes with her dogs Daisy and Lily as well as weight lifts to stay physically fit. As Miss Indian Arizona Alyse's platform is to encourage people to practice self-care. She states she wants to explore areas of physical, mental and spiritual well-being with a goal to connect people with resources that can help improve ourselves in these areas. "I would aim to empower everyone through emphasizing the positivity of self-reflection and taking control of your own inter outer health". Way to Go Alyse!
