Words from Trisha Moquino...
As we come upon the end of Native American Heritage Month, we recognize the importance of being able to offer an education that is grounded in our Keres language and culture. We are grateful for the recent blessings of snow and rain and that we are able to talk about this blessing in our language to one another and to the children at KCLC. How beautiful it is to have the blessing of learning from our Indigenous Knowledge Systems, which are embedded in our Keres language, and to have our Elders, whose first language was Keres, to help us to do so.
Reclaiming the education of our children is a difficult but much needed pathway, and we at KCLC continue to do our best to meet our mission: 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.
This October, our Director of the Indigenous Montessori Institute, Tracey Cordero, will be leaving KCLC to work for the tribe as the Tribal Administrator of Pueblo de Cochiti. Although we are sad to lose her, we know her numerous skill sets, her amazing work ethic, and love of our people will guide all the good work that she is bound to do at the Tribal Administration offices (which is just a hop, skip, and jump away from KCLC). She will not be that far away, and we know she will continue to support KCLC. We are grateful to Tracey for her commitment to KCLC and the strong foundation she has helped to create at our Indigenous Montessori Institute. We wish you all the best, Tracey!
