Salazar Elementary School Garden

Salazar Elementary School

This request is for enrichment materials for Salazar's sustainability and garden program. So often in the school year we have to abandon our garden program because of the cold weather. These supplies will revitalize the green house and provide indoor opportunities for students to explore during those frigid months.

The funding will go toward purchasing new hoop house plastic, grow lights, planter boxes, seed, and soil. Thank-you for your consideration.

Musical Instrument and Summer Music Program Support

New Mexico School for the Arts and Mandela International Magnet School

The talented and passionate music students at the New Mexico School for the Arts come from all over the state for tuition-free, intensive, pre-professional music instruction. The majority of students come from underserved communities and do not have the means to purchase or rent professional quality instruments. Nor do these students have the means to pay expensive registration, audition, and tuition fees to attend summer music programs, masterclasses, workshops, concerts, and other enriching activities to further their musical education.

These $4Schools funds will go directly to provide scholarships for up to as many as 80 NMSA and Mandela International Magnet School instrumental music students to purchase (or rent) professional level instruments, and/or provide tuition assistance to attend world class summer intensives and other pre-professional performance and educational activities that will greatly support their musical trajectory.

She Who Shaped New Mexico

The International Women's Forum of New Mexico is asking for support in the amount of $2,000 to help New Mexico Historic Women Marker initiative with educational outreach for grades Kindergarten through twelfth grade in Santa Fe Public Schools.

We map the stories of the courageous women who shaped New Mexico and its culture. Through our historical markers, we educate, inspire and empower new generations of women who travel our roads. The website is an easily accessible learning tool and available to anyone free of charge. These funds will help expand our audience and share curriculums which we are developing. Our goal is to share inspiring stories of women who have helped shape New Mexico to inspire future generations to make a positive impact in our communities.

Volunteer Background Check Assistance

As the SFPS Volunteer Coordinator, and in an effort to encourage a more diverse volunteer population, I would like to offer paid background fees for up to 50 volunteer applicants to distributed throughout 5 different schools within the Santa Fe Public School District. Certain demographic criteria, including a residence radius of applicants who live within 6 blocks of the schools' attendance area will be required to be eligible for usage of the background check funds.
