Student Nutrition
The federal waiver providing free meals to all students ended last year. This year, parents of students at Acequia Madre, Atalaya, Carlos Gilbert, Pinon and Wood Gormley Elementaries, Amy Biehl and El Dorado Community Schools, Mandela International Magnet School and Santa Fe High School will need to fill out an application to determine eligibility for free, reduced-price or full-price meals. Applications may be completed electronically from any device with internet access. We recommend that applications be completed prior to the first day of school.

Congratulations to our Class of 2022 Summer Graduates!
The summer commencement ceremony was held at the Bryan Fant Theatre at Capital High School this morning, where 33 students crossed the stage and received their high school diploma!
The Board of Education is looking for your input on the redistricting of school board member boundaries! This is NOT the rezoning of schools, the change is only to the boundaries of school board members.

Congratulations to Santa Fe High School for its strong performance on Advanced Placement (AP) Exams in 2022-23. 77% of exam scores were 3 or higher on a 5-point scale, with a 3.4 mean score for all 410 exams. This highest-ever score for the school exceeds the 2021 AP Exams national mean score of 2.80 and score of 3 or higher on 60% of all exams taken. According to The College Board, taking an AP Exam demonstrates commitment to tackling and completing college-level work.
Santa Fe Public Schools has so much to offer. Let us take you on a Journey Through SFPS. Over the next six weeks, we are going to travel across Santa Fe, making a stop every day at a destination (school) to show our voyagers (students) what makes each destination special. Come along for the journey, and Choose Your Adventure at Santa Fe Public Schools.
Hearing the sound of music and drums coming from Santa Fe High?
That's because the Blue Knights Drum and Bugle Corps is practicing before they head on tour!
They will be rehearsing their performance tonight at Ivan Head Stadium from 5:30 - 7:30 before they head to Phoenix!
On June 30th the Santa Fe High School Band is hosting the Blue Knights Drum & Bugle Corps from Denver, CO.
The Blue Knights are a member of Drum Corps International and are one of the top 10 marching ensembles in the world. They will be rehearsing in the SFHS stadium all day as they begin their summer tour working towards DCI World Championships.
We are extremely excited to house a World Class Drum Corps in Santa Fe for the first time in almost two decades. We would like to invite members of the community to visit SFHS that day, to watch the Blue Knights. There is no cost, and audiences of all ages and musical backgrounds will enjoy watching them rehearse.
For more information on the Blue Knights, you can visit their website www.ascendperformingarts.org
