Key duties include developing language curriculum, teaching Tewa, and co-teaching using a project-based learning approach. Candidates for this position are proficient in the Tewa language, highly organized, and embody Pueblo core values of Respect, Compassion, Responsibility, Perseverance, Community, and Partnerships. KCS is a dual language (Tewa/English) Tribally Controlled Grant school serving Santa Clara Pueblo. We currently serve approximately 125 families, prenatal through 6th grade, and adult learners. KCS is a school grounded in providing students with rigorous, high-quality educational opportunities that are culturally centered on Tewa language proficiency and interactive, hands-on learning. We support students in their physical and emotional growth as well, valuing student identity and promoting and modeling high self-esteem and confidence. Tewa Teachers are assigned to specific classrooms where they work in close collaboration with the classroom teacher to deliver dual-language instruction using a project-based learning approach. This collaborative approach includes developing curriculum and materials, supporting/leading field trips, and promoting Tewa language use throughout the classroom and school. Applicants for this position must have a high school diploma or GED and a valid New Mexico drivers' license. They should be fluent in the Tewa language. Holding a Santa Clara Pueblo Tewa Language Certification is not required but preferred. Candidates must be willing to work towards Tribal language certification. Those with teaching experience are preferred, especially teaching Tewa language in an Elementary setting. KCS follows the Indian Preference Act of 1934 (Title 25, USC, Section 472) which promotes filling vacancies with qualified Indian candidates - consideration of non-Indian applicants will be made in the absence of qualified Indian candidates.
