Holloman Elementary was so excited to be part of the STARBASE Holloman Teacher Open House this week!
The event gave us a great preview of what our 5th grade students can expect when they start the program. Including demos, curriculum breakdowns, and a full look at how STARBASE is bringing STEM to life at our district. It was super informative and got us even more excited for our students to dive into all the amazing learning experiences ahead!
Huge thank you to the STARBASE team for hosting and for giving us the chance to be part of something so impactful. We can’t wait to see our 5th graders in action soon! 🚀

Last year, we asked you to share your thoughts as we began developing our Framework for the Future, a long-term strategic plan. Thanks to your valuable input and the hard work of APS teachers, students, families, administration, and community members, the strategic plan has been developed, and we are moving forward with implementation.
As we continue this work, Alamogordo Public Schools, alongside the School Board and our partner, Learner-Centered Collaborative (LCC), are launching three new learning cohorts. These groups will focus on implementing our Framework in classrooms across the district—helping us ensure that our students are truly college, career, and life-ready.
To guide this next phase, we are seeking more in-depth insights from our families and community members. Your voice is vital to this process. By completing the survey linked below, you will help shape how our schools grow, how our students learn, and how our community continues to thrive.
Please take a few minutes to complete the survey by Friday, September 26th: https://bit.ly/APSimpact2526
You can also visit our Framework for the Future webpage to learn more about this work and stay updated on our progress: https://www.alamogordoschools.org/o/aps/page/framework-for-the-future
We greatly appreciate your time and thoughtful participation. Together, we are building the future of learning in Alamogordo.

Today our 5th graders had an amazing time with the Air & Space STEM Outreach Team! 🙌 A huge thank you to them for bringing such an engaging hands-on learning experience to our students. 💡
