TAS Education Committee project
In addition to curriculum that supports state educational guidelines, is the understanding by the younger generation of New Mexicans that their cultural heritage is a unique treasure to be appreciated and protected for future generations. Visiting with respect and understanding is emphasized at all times.
Most of our major activities these last few years have involved direct contact with students. Other activities have been focused on more general planning and outreach to the community.
