Did you know? 🚌

On the 80th & 120th day of school, APS captures a snapshot of the bus ridership to report to NMPED. The information collected on this day is very important and impacts the funding our district receives for transportation. Transportation funding not only supports students' daily rides to and from school, it can also support in-district school field trips.

On Monday, December 1st, if your child is a bus rider please help us provide an accurate count by having them ride the bus. Thank you and see you soon!

📢Important announcement for Alamogordo High School families.

Please take a moment to read the important announcement below regarding the upcoming change to parking/waiting areas near AHS.

You can also find the PDF version at the following link: https://5il.co/3s2m8

Upcoming Change to Parking/Waiting Areas Near AHS Thursday, November 6, 2025 Dear APS High School Families, We have been informed of a change that will affect where families can park and wait during drop-off and pickup at Alamogordo High School each day. The City of Alamogordo has designated the area between the flashing school zone lights on Cuba Ave. as a noparking zone. They will be installing “No Parking While Lights Are Flashing” signage along the roadway in front of the high school in this zone. Installation is scheduled to begin tomorrow, Friday, November 7th. This will affect the section of road where many families currently park and wait for students. Once these signs are in place, vehicles will not be allowed to park in those posted areas during active school zone times and should expect enforcement by the Alamogordo Police Department. We understand that this change will create inconvenience and may require a shift in normal routines, especially for families who have relied on that space for waiting. We are sharing this information as soon as we received it so families can plan accordingly. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation, as our shared goal is always student safety, and we will continue to communicate any updates or guidance as we receive them. The APS Soccer Complex is available for families to park and wait for their students. A protected crosswalk is available at the intersection of First Street and Cuba Avenue. If you have any questions concerning this change, please contact the Alamogordo Police Department. Thank you for your patience as we work through this together.
