Kha'p'o Community School Returns K-6 Education to Pueblo Control


Kha'p'o Community School recently became the first of six Native American Community Academy schools in New Mexico and, after two years of planning, is now entirely under tribal control. Its educational model brings tribal language and project-based learning focused on tribal identity into the classroom. This model teaches the importance of cultural preservation and prepares the children who will someday be leading the very tribe that they are being educated in.
