OFFICIALS ON WEDNESDAY WILL DISCUSS MERGING RIO RANCHO AND SANTA ANA PUEBLO SCHOOL DISTRICT INTO A NEW DISTRICT. BUT CHANNEL 13 NEWS REPORTS NOT EVERYONE IS ON BOARD WITH THE IDEA. THE PUBLIC EDUCATION DEPARTMENT SAYS THE IDEA IS STILL ON THE TABLE, BUT OFFICIALS THERE WANT TO HEAR FROM ALL SIDES NOW TO ENSURE IT’LL BE A GOOD MOVE AND ITS SUPPORTED.
SANTA ANA STUDENTS CURRENTLY ATTEND BERNALILLO PUBLIC SCHOOLS. FORMER PED SECRETARY CHRISTOPHER RUSZKOWSKI RECOMMENDED THE MERGER AFTER THE PUEBLO REQUESTED IT.
MERGING THE PUEBLO WITH RIO RANCHO PUBLIC SCHOOLS WOULD CREATE A WHOLE NEW DISTRICT.
