Holiday
We wrapped up our last school day of 2025 with so much fun, laughter, and lots of smiling faces! Our halls were full of joy, and a surprise visit from the Grinch made the day even more special. It was the perfect way to head into the break and celebrate all the great moments we’ve shared this year. The South Conejos School District wishes our students, families, and staff a happy holiday season and a wonderful New Year! 🎄💚

This afternoon, our elementary students were busy presenting to their classmates, and they all did a fantastic job! We were proud to see their confidence, creativity, and hard work on display. We were able to capture a few of our great students in action, along with some of our awesome dads who came out to support them. What a wonderful afternoon of learning and encouragement! 👏📚
