Our Family and Community Appreciation Dinner on April 9th was a success. We were proud to serve a total of 80 meals, bringing together families, staff, and community members. It was especially nice to have a couple of our commissioners join us, showing their continued support and commitment to our school.

We want to give a big "Thank You" to everyone who attended and supported our South Conejos School District Family Appreciation Dinner! We appreciate all the volunteers who either donated food items or their time to prepare and serve. Some special mentions go out to Ms. Stephanie Kreps (and Bailee & Katie), Ms. Deb Hoover, Ms. Sandra Pawloski, Ms. Valerie Serrano, Ms. Debbie Arellano-Martinez, and Max & Margie DeHerrera. Without the motivation and positive attitudes, events like this for our families and community members would not be possible. A true CREW effort!

South Conejos School District took time to come together for an all-school pep rally as students and staff prepared for upcoming state testing. The goal was to energize and encourage our students to do their very best, while reminding them that they are capable of great success. The rally was filled with fun staff vs. student challenges, games, and plenty of dancing!

As we begin testing today, we encourage all of our students to stay confident, focused, and give it their all. You've got this! Trojans... All in, All the time!
