About this organization
Mission
KCLC strives to reclaim our children's education and honor our heritage by using a comprehensive cultural and academic curriculum to assist families in nurturing Keres-speaking, holistically-healthy, community-minded, and academically strong students.
About
School & after-school programs & parent seminar - KCLC continued to pursue reestablishment of Keres fluency in the community by exercising indigenous educational sovereignty at Cochiti Pueblo. Children learn using their heritage language of Keres, while accessing an academic curriculum that intellectually challenges & values their whole being. We use core strategies of Keres-immersion in early childhood - dual-language education for elementary children; rigorous parent involvement, an intergenerational approach to language learning & use of the Montessori pedagogy. KCLC served an average of 15 children in our immersion (ages 3-6) - dual-language (ages 6-9) classrooms. We expanded Keres language & culture curriculum through the work of our elder teachers & maintained Montessori accreditation.
