Mounted on classroom wall at child-eye-height. Recited at the start of every Morning Meeting after lesson 6 establishes it. NOT a once-and-done ritualistic chant; the daily noticing affirms the protocol of being-a-guest. Caregivers receive a copy in the week-6 parent letter. CRITICAL: the acknowledgment must be DRAFTED WITH input from the actual local tribal nation's education office or NMAI guidance - never invented by non-Native staff in isolation.
