Basic Needs

Ensuring that every child's basic needs are met is the key to success in our schools. 66% of children in the Santa Fe Public Schools qualify for free and reduced lunch. 24% of children (school age) live in poverty in Santa Fe. Principals, teachers and counselors work to provide the basics including clothing (school uniforms, socks, warm coats) as well as nutritious snacks to students to support a healthy learning environment. When basic needs are met, it puts kids on the right track for learning.

Health & Wellness

A child's physical and mental health, emotional well-being, and positive development are key to academic success. 14% of Santa Fe kindergarten students are obese. 21% of third graders are obese. New Mexico has youth suicide rates that are twice the national average. Student Wellness Action Teams (SWAT) work to educate students at our middle and high schools. These projects promote the health and wellness of ALL students to advance their readiness to learn, make good choices and ensure a healthy lifestyle.
