Students in the Academic Career Experience (ACE) program recently participated in the Dress for Success event, where they were given a budget of $130 to shop for professional clothing at Dillard’s.

This opportunity allowed students to select attire that will help them feel confident and prepared for future academic and career opportunities.

The event was made possible through the generous sponsorship of Nusenda Credit Union and the continued support of Dillard’s and the Las Cruces Public Schools Foundation, whose partnership helped make this experience a success for our students.

Unified Therapeutic Recreation Sweetheart Dance 2026

The Unified Therapeutic Recreation Sweetheart Dance brought together middle and high school students from special programs, creating a shared space for connection, celebration, and fun.

Throughout the school year, students work on developing their socialization skills, and events like this give them a fun and welcoming environment to practice those skills in a real-world setting.

For many of the students, the moment they walk into the room and hear the music playing, their faces light up. Even students who communicate differently can connect and express themselves through music, movement, and the comfort of familiar faces.

This dance is more than just a party it’s a social experience that promotes confidence, participation, and joy in recreation and leisure activities.

A big thank you to all of our wonderful special education teachers and staff, and to Sierra Middle School for hosting the event.

Flashback Friday!

Rewind to 1992 with the Royal Knight Regiment, bringing the sound and the spirit to the field. Under the direction of Director John Fannin, with drum majors John Converse and Josue Rodriguez leading the charge, RKR had an unforgettable marching season.

That year, the Royal Knight Regiment earned the Gregg Randall Award of Excellence at the NMSU Tournament of Bands.

From powerful performances to lifelong memories, this is the legacy of excellence that continues to shape our students and our schools.

This is Las Cruces Public Schools, then and now.
