The National Weather Service in El Paso has issued a Flash Flood Warning for South Central Dona Ana County. Additionally LCPS Field of Dreams is currently in a shelter in place due to lightning within a 10-mile radius. Out of an abundance of caution for the safety of students, families, and our community, tonight's LCPS Marching Band Exhibition will be postponed, a future date will be determined and announced. Students were scheduled to begin arriving as early as 5:00 p.m. It was determined that a decision to postpone be made early as possible in order to mitigate any potential safety issues. A rescheduled date will be shared soon. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

In honor of New Mexico Grown Month (September 12th – October 7th), the Nutrition Services Department served locally grown meals today to students and staff in every school. This means 100% of the items and ingredients that went into preparing the main meals came from our local farmers and ranchers across New Mexico. Check out these delicious tacos!

Attention Mesilla Families - As of today, any child who is picked up early must be checked out through a computer based system called "Rapture."

Hispanic Heritage Month is observed annually from September 15 to October 15. It is a time to appreciate and celebrate the colorful cultures, rich histories, and diversity of the American Latino community. The idea for Hispanic Heritage Month, celebrated throughout the latter half of September and the first half of October, began as a way to promote the history, culture, and contributions of Hispanic-Americans — specifically, those whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central and South America. Communities mark the achievements of Hispanic and Latino Americans with festivals and educational activities.

As of 12:50 p.m. many campuses are sheltering in place due to lightning, including: MVLA, Vista Middle, Camino, Sunrise, Central Elementary, Conlee, Alameda, Lynn, Tombaugh, Jornada, Desert Hills, Mesilla Park Elementary, Monte Vista, Hermosa Heights, Sierra, Sonoma, Doña Ana Elementary, Organ Mountain, Picacho Middle, Centennial, Zia, Loma Heights, Las Cruces High, Fairacres Elementary, and MacArthur. Lightning is a very unpredictable event and is quite capable of striking anywhere and at any time throughout an active cell. Visitors to school campuses may be sheltered in place in a school cafeteria or gym. If you need to pick up your child while a school is sheltering in place due to weather, you may do so at your own risk. Las Cruces Public Schools assumes no responsibility for your child at that point. Please expect delays as it takes time to call each child out of class individually or in small groups. Please click the link to find the lightning safety protocols for LCPS: https://www.lcps.net/page/safety-tips. To receive important alerts and information from your schools, please download the LCPS app today! Download the app on Android: https://bit.ly/3z1L88X or iPhone: https://apple.co/3BYAOAh.
