The Keres Children’s Learning Center (KCLC) is a not-for-profit educational organization that supports Cochiti Pueblo children and families in maintaining, strengthening, and revitalizing their heritage language of Keres. We are a Montessori school that uses the Cochiti Keres language for daily instruction across all areas of learning, beginning with children ages 3-6 years old, and now for our Elementary I classroom.

Join us for our next fundraiser webinar: "Centering Children & Language Reclamation in Land Back & Ecological Justice"

Thursday, September 17, 2026
12:00 PM – 1:30 PM MST

The future of land back and ecological justice runs through our children and our languages. Join a powerful conversation with:

Dr. Lyla June Johnston: Musician, scholar, and community organizer bridging Indigenous land stewardship, language, and healing

Trisha Moquino: Co-founder and leader at Keres Children's Learning Center and the Indigenous Montessori Institute

Dale Naranjo: Outdoor culture teacher at Keres Children's Learning Center

Emi Aguilar: Director of Membership & Radical Collaboration at Black Liberation Indigenous Sovereignty (BLIS) Collective

Moderated by Margarita Acosta, Co-Director of the Indigenous Montessori Institute.

We'll explore how language reclamation and land stewardship are inseparable, why "one-hour language classes" aren't enough, and why the land back movement must re-center children and language for the Landback movement to truly live into what it intends to do.
This webinar is also a fundraiser for IMI's work reclaiming and centering Indigenous education.
