Kha'p'o Community School

Kha'p'o Community School, formerly known as the Santa Clara Day School, is a tribal elementary school[1] in Santa Clara Pueblo, New Mexico,[2] with an Española postal address.[3] It is affiliated with the Bureau of Indian Education (BIE).

Located in proximity to Espanola, it was formerly directly operated by the BIE.[2] In 1990 it had the highest number of students of the three Native American schools in the northern "pueblos" of New Mexico.[4]

History

In 1987 the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools accredited the school.[5]

In 1991 a bill was filed in the New Mexico Legislature in honor of the school's achievements.[6]

A NACA-Inspired Schools Network-spearheaded change, partly done to ensure students kept fluency in the Tewa language, meant that in 2016 it became operated by a tribe, and it gained its current name.[2]

Operations

After completing education at Kha'p'o, students typically go to Pojoaque Valley School District facilities.[7]
