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

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.

Today was the amazing Capital High School Senior Parade and College and Career Committment Day! Our graduating seniors walked through the halls of our feeder schools in their caps and gowns, high-fiving the younger students and reconnecting with their old teachers. They finished the parade on the football field, with schools and organizations across New Mexico to discuss their future. A special thanks to Gear Up for all the amazing work they do to put on such an engaging event for our students!
The parade was a beautiful celebration of the achievements of these amazing students, and a tribute to the incredible educators and role models who have supported them throughout their academic journey. It was a powerful reminder of the importance of community and the incredible impact that we can have on each other's lives.
As we watched the graduating seniors walk through the halls, we saw the looks of pride and admiration on the faces of the younger students. It was a beautiful reminder that these graduating seniors were once in their shoes and that they too can achieve great things with hard work and dedication.
We are so grateful to the incredible teachers, staff members and community members who have supported these students throughout their academic journey. We are proud of each and every one of our graduating seniors, and we know that they will go on to do incredible things in the future.

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.
