  ## History
  
  In February 2021, during the COVID-19 pandemic in New Mexico, the district decided that, as its students needed to compete in the New Mexico Activities Association, it would need to enact hybrid learning.
  
  Circa 2022 the W.K. Kellogg Foundation donated $300,000, which the district planned to use to increase its agriculture-based programs.
