Join us on August 10th as we come together to provide school supplies to ensure your child has a successful start to the new school year!
See below for more information.
If your child has a health condition requiring medication at school or other medical treatment during the 23-24 school year, please contact your school nurse to obtain the necessary forms and doctor's orders. Thank you for your help in keeping students healthy and ready to learn!
Santa Fe Public Schools is now accepting applications for free or reduced-price meals. Although we will feed all students at no cost in the 2023-24 school year, we must collect an application for Free and Reduced Meals. The data collected from this process determines eligibility and funding for P-EBT, Title 1, E-Rate, and other programs. Only one application per family is needed. The application can be completed online at www.myschoolapps.com
Questions? Contact Tina Anaya at 505-467-3600.
We wanted to take a moment to emphasize the continued importance of submitting free and reduced lunch applications for your children. These applications play a vital role, especially now that SB4 (Healthy Universal School Meals) is tied to funding and programming.
The Public Education Department relies on accurate counts of qualifying students to ensure that the necessary funds and services are available to schools across New Mexico. By submitting your free and reduced lunch applications, you contribute to this crucial process and help support our schools and students.
The benefits of these applications go beyond just providing nutritious meals to our children. They enable the Public Education Department to allocate funds for various educational programs and initiatives that directly impact our students' learning experiences. These resources can make a significant difference in their education and overall well-being.
Together, we can ensure that every student in Santa Fe has access to the resources they need to thrive.
Queríamos tomarnos un momento para enfatizar la importancia continua de enviar solicitudes de almuerzo gratis oa precio reducido para sus hijos. Estas aplicaciones juegan un papel vital, especialmente ahora que SB4 (Comidas Escolares Universales y Saludables) está ligado a la financiación y la programación.
El Departamento de Educación Pública se basa en conteos precisos de estudiantes calificados para garantizar que los fondos y servicios necesarios estén disponibles para las escuelas en todo Nuevo México. Al enviar sus solicitudes de almuerzo gratis o reducido, contribuye a este proceso crucial y ayuda a apoyar a nuestras escuelas y estudiantes.
Los beneficios de estas aplicaciones van más allá de brindar comidas nutritivas a nuestros niños. Permiten que el Departamento de Educación Pública asigne fondos para varios programas e iniciativas educativas que impactan directamente en las experiencias de aprendizaje de nuestros estudiantes. Estos recursos pueden marcar una diferencia significativa en su educación y bienestar general.
Juntos, podemos asegurarnos de que todos los estudiantes de Santa Fe tengan acceso a los recursos que necesitan para prosperar.

Congratulations to our Mimi Hatch Scholarship winners!
The Mimi Hatch Memorial Scholarship is annually awarded to seniors who demonstrate superior academic achievement throughout their educational careers. This award was created in memory of Mimi Hatch who was an inspirational educator in the Santa Fe community. She advocated for young people to motivate themselves to strive for excellence in the face of hardship.
The Santa Fe Public Schools Adelante Program is offering $1,500.00 and a new laptop through the Mimi Hatch Memorial Scholarship to 6 high school students who have been accepted and are attending a vocational program or two or four-year college/university beginning the fall semester of 2023. Seven hundred fifty dollars will be applied to each semester.

Multiple school districts throughout the state have received social media threats against schools. SFPS and SFPD are taking precautionary measures to ensure the safety at our schools. The City of Santa Fe and SFPD are working directly with the FBI on the threat, which appears to be a hoax. There is no immediate threat towards any SFPS school.
