Due to the Public Rule Hearing in Santa Fe, December 18th, there will be NO SCHOOL on this day. We hope that families will be encouraged to join us in Santa Fe for the hearing. The hearing will take place at the Jerry Apodaca building in Mabry Hall. It will begin at 1:30 and they have to continue hearing testimony until everyone who wants to speak is heard. Once again, I made a video detailing the proposed rule changes, to access the video link on this link and open it. https://fb.watch/oUFBLn1poU/ Once again, there will be no school on Monday, December 18th.

The Public Education Department has issued a proposed rule change that will directly impact us at MPS. This rule change is available on the PED website and I had previously posted it. I have made a short video outlining the proposals. https://fb.watch/oUFBLn1poU/ The rule change is also available on the PED website using this address: http://webnew.ped.state.nm.us/bureaus/policy-innovation-measurement/rule-notification/ The PED is accepting public feedback via email at Rule.Feedback@ped.nm.gov

MAKE YOUR VOICES HEARD! The PED just released a proposed rule change. This rule change would force all schools to create a calendar for the 24-25 school year that have a minimum of 180 days, 1140 hours, and 50%of the school weeks must have 5 days. This rule would get rid of all 4 day schools. As a small, rural school we are able to attract teachers with our 4 day week. When many other districts can't find teachers, they are using long term subs and in many cases they are having to combine classes because there are no teachers! We are able to do great things for our students with our longer schools days. It's going to take all our voices to stop PED from passing this rule. Please let PED know your opinion.
