On May 12th, our school community gathered for a special evening to celebrate the accomplishments of our students at the annual High School Athletic and Academic Banquet. This year's event was our biggest yet, with an incredible turnout that truly reflected the pride and spirit of our school. It was a night filled with joy, recognition, and gratitude as we honored the hard work and dedication our students have shown throughout the school year, in both academics and athletics. A heartfelt thank you goes out to the parents, teachers, coaches, and staff whose support makes all the difference. Your commitment, time, and presence matter more than words can express. Showing up for our kids—whether in the stands, the classroom, or at events like this—reinforces the message that they are seen, valued, and believed in. This banquet was not just a celebration of achievement, but a reminder of how powerful a supportive community can be in helping our students thrive

Our high school athletes gave it their all at the final track meet of the season, held at Monte Vista High School. It was a day filled with determination, school spirit, and impressive performances. From sprints to distance runs, jumps to throws, our students showed grit, growth, and great sportsmanship. This meet marked the culmination of a season of hard work, and we couldn’t be prouder of how far our athletes have come. Their dedication and teamwork were on full display, and it was inspiring to see them finish strong. Congratulations to our track team on a great season!

This year’s Spring Concert at South Conejos School District on May 7th was nothing short of inspiring. Our students took the stage with confidence, showcasing not only their talent but the remarkable musical growth they’ve achieved over the school year. From heartfelt vocal performances to skillful instrumental pieces and even original student recordings, the evening was a powerful reminder of what passion and dedication can create. A huge shout-out goes to our incredible music teacher, Mrs. Gettel, whose energy, creativity, and unwavering support have sparked a true love for music in our students. Her guidance has turned curiosity into confidence and helped each student find their voice—literally and figuratively. Thank you, Mrs. Gettel, for making music come alive in South Conejos!

The Trojan baseball team wrapped up their season last week with a hard-fought final game against Centennial. While they didn't clinch a playoff spot this year, the team showed heart, grit, and true Trojan spirit every time they took the field. Through every challenge, these athletes grew stronger together and made memories that will last a lifetime. A special congratulations goes to Rylan Trant for reaching an incredible milestone—100 strikeouts this season! We are proud of all our players for their dedication and teamwork. Way to go, Trojans!

On April 26, 2025, we had four Contestants qualify to participate in this year's National History Day Colorado hosted by the University of Colorado Denver. This year's theme was "Rights & Responsibilities in History ". Matthew Mascarenas and Octavian Martinez presented their exhibit "Armed and Ready- The Case of Gun Rights," and Joe Ray Romero and Dylan Gray presented their exhibit "This Land is Your Land, This Land is Ours?" Both groups received accolades, encouragement, and positive feedback from the judges. Although they did not qualify for the upcoming National History Day in Washington, D.C., we could not be more proud of them for representing their school, their families, and our San Luis Valley at a state-level academic competition! This competition had well over 3000 students from across the state, and the experience has changed them in ways they and we have yet to see! Go Trojans!
