Zia's National Junior Honor Society held a service event February 11th. NJHS students and other Zia students made Valentine's Day cards for the residents of Casa Del Sol nursing home. Way to go Zia!!!
February is Black History Month! We are kicking the month off by recognizing the great Clara Belle Williams who lived, studied and worked in Las Cruces. Williams was the first African-American graduate of the New Mexico College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts (now NMSU) in 1937. After graduation, Williams taught at the Booker T. Washington School in Las Cruces for twenty-seven years before retiring and moving to Chicago in 1951 to join her sons who had opened a medical clinic. A pictured plaque of Williams is on display on the Legacy Wall at the Las Cruces Public Schools Dr. Karen M. Trujillo Administration Complex. The plaque honors Clara Belle Williams, recognizing her establishment of Booker T. Washington Elementary School, calling her a pioneer in education.
It’s everything LCPS, in your pocket.
Las Cruces School District is launching a new mobile app
that helps students, parents, and community members
know what is happening on campus, right from their phones.
We know that families are using smartphones as a primary
means to communicate. That’s why we’ve created an
app that is custom-built for mobile. On the app, you can
find documents, contact information for staff, and event
information. You can download the app for free from the
Apple App Store or Google Play.
