150 students from 11 schools participated in a mock Legislative Session at the Roundhouse. Santa Fe High School (SFHS) students worked diligently for months to draft bills and practice their debate skills. Though SFHS students’ bills were either vetoed or didn’t make it to the Governor’s desk, SFHS took home two of the highest awards: Best Representative – Florian Stricks and Best Senator – Landen Kessler. Congratulations, SFHS students!

The Santa Fe High School (SFHS) Band will be sporting new band uniforms within the next year. The new uniforms are being purchased with $164,000 in federal ESSER funds, which are set to expire in September.
"It's wonderful to have a little pot of remaining ESSER funding to provide this important need and SFPS Board of Education priority. We look forward to seeing the SFHS Band perform in their new attire at their home stadium and at other venues far and wide," said Superintendent Hilario "Larry" Chavez.
In making its request to the New Mexico Public Education Department to use ESSER funding to purchase the band uniforms, SFPS said, "Band performances help reignite our schools as centers of our community and culture, and in turn will boost school attendance. Furthermore, music performances are part of culturally relevant instruction and practice."
