Due to road conditions in certain areas of the district, all SFPS schools will have a two-hour delay Thursday, Nov. 7th to allow extra time for buses to transport students safely. This means that bus schedules will run two hours later than usual. Please ensure your student(s) are kept from being dropped off before the delayed start as staff will not be on campus. Full-day Pre-K programs are delayed by two hours, while morning Pre-K programs are canceled. Afternoon Pre-K programs will continue as scheduled. Our next update will be at 8 a.m.

The New Mexico Public Education Department has issued new guidance for handling threats that originate on social media. Recently, schools across the nation have seen a surge in social media threats—many of which are hoaxes or pranks. Even when these threats are unfounded, they can still lead to widespread fear, the cancellation of events, and a strain on resources.
We urge everyone to be vigilant online and report any suspicious activity to authorities. Let's work together to keep our schools safe and protect our community's well-being.

What students do both inside and outside of the classroom impacts their educational success. When students participate in activities outside the classroom, such as clubs, sports or school events, they develop a sense of belonging and community. Check out this week's SFPS Bulletin at https://conta.cc/3X6DVUb and the perspective of Lucas Robbins, a senior at Mandela International Magnet School and student member of the SFPS Board of Education, as he discusses student engagement!
