💫If you need to excuse your student(s) from school, you can easily do that with one phone call to our APS call center! You don't have to call each school individually!
Excusing your student? Call Let's Talk! at 575-812-8573

We need the entire #Alamogordo community to jump into the fun! Let's spread kindness in Alamogordo! Chalk Your Walk on February 20th! 💓🖍️
To streamline our Out-Of-Zone (OOZ) process for returning students and to provide our families with more peace of mind, we have replaced the full annual application with a simplified Letter of Intent. 📝
📱For current OOZ students in grades K–4, 6, and 7, who have been pre-approved, parents/guardians will receive a Letter of Intent via the guardian's email listed in PowerSchool beginning today. If you expect a letter and don't receive one this week, please call Let's Talk! 575-812-8573 starting Tuesday, February 17. 💻
💫Here are a few exceptions:
▪️Students transitioning to Middle School: Please note that all current 5th-grade students moving to 6th grade next year must complete a new Out-of-Zone application if they are requesting an OOZ school.
▪️All new students to APS and incoming 6th graders will complete the OOZ application.
▪️If you are returning to APS but have not previously completed an OOZ application, you will complete a new application as well.
✨The application window for new requests will open on March 2nd.✨

We want to remind drivers of the importance of using caution as you drive through school zones and encounter 🚌 school buses in the mornings and afternoons. Please obey school zones' speed limits, and come to a COMPLETE STOP while the bus stop signal is out, and only proceed driving after the STOP signal is REMOVED by the bus driver. 🚌
Thank you for helping us keep our students safe.
