The study was done under a descriptive research in order to understand the variables of study and establish a comparison between the two educational institutions, the approach used was mixed since interviews (teachers) and surveys (students) were applied. Based on the results obtained, it was identified that the educational institutions face challenges related to the practice and preservation of the ancestral traditions of the Montubio fluminense due to various factors, although the most relevant are: the contextualization of school texts, the lack of planning of Montubio cultural activities, the lack of meaningful teaching about the Montubio people and the use of technology that affects the cultural identity of the students, this research concludes in recommendations to improve the quality of educational practices from an intercultural approach.
