Thank you to the fire stations in Lemitar, Socorro, and San Antonio for bringing Santa and the Grinch to our elementary schools. The kids all had individual pictures with the duo, as well as class pictures with them. Thank you Charles Frazier and Jesse Bowser for the time they spent with each and every student. And thank you to Nora Snyder for referring Santa to Socorro Schools. It was truly a magical day!

Dear Parents,
As you may or may not be aware, our school district and community has recently experienced the death of a former student which has deeply affected us all. The family has requested privacy as they mourn their loss.
We have implemented our district’s Crisis Intervention Team in an effort to provide support and counseling services to all of those students impacted. The most important thing we can do at this time is to listen, be supportive, and encourage an open expression of feelings. Counselors are available in the school setting to assist students as they express their feelings related to this tragedy. Mental health support is available in the evenings and weekends. We have included a reference sheet to help you recognize possible reactions you may observe in your child. If you feel your child is in need of special assistance or is having a great deal of difficulty coping with this loss please do not hesitate to call the numbers listed below.
While it is important to deal with grief, loss, anger and fear reactions, we believe it is essential to resume as normal a routine as possible regarding school activities. Please observe your child closely over the next several days and weeks to watch for signs of distress, which may indicate a need for additional support and guidance. Please feel free to call if you have any concerns or questions regarding your child, or the steps being taken by the district to address this loss.

Hello SCS!
With the election quickly approaching on November 7, 2023, we wanted to share some information regarding the SB9 tax levy question that will be on the ballot. Approval of this question would not generate a new tax levy, it would be a continuation of an existing levy. The funds generated from this levy are used for facility maintenance and repairs across the district. Please get out and vote!
Thank you to all the participants!!!
New Athletic/Activity Procedures
