Juneteenth, also known as “Emancipation Day” or the “Day of Freedom,” is both the somber and celebratory day to commemorate the Thirteenth Amendment abolishing slavery. On June 19, 1865, two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation, Union soldiers went to Galveston, Texas to enforce the freeing of all remaining slaves. Juneteenth is recognized annually on June 19th, commemorating the freedom of all enslaved people in the United States of America.

Las Cruces Public Schools would like to wish a very Happy Father's Day to all the wonderful father's on their special day. Thank you for all you do!

Download the new LCPS app today! Las Cruces School District has launched a new mobile app that helps students, parents, and community members know what is happening on campus, right from their phones. We know that families are using smartphones as a primary means to communicate. That’s why we’ve created an app that is custom-built for mobile. On the app, you can find documents, contact information for staff, and event information. You can download the app for free from the Apple App Store or Google Play. Three Main Benefits: 1) Know what’s going on at school. Ex: Find real-time updates from the website’s live feed about stories happening inside the classroom or in the art studio. 2) Connect with teachers and administrators. Ex: Learn about parent-teacher conferences, access staff contact information, and quickly find out about district news. 3) Stay up-to-date with school information. Ex: Receive updates about events occurring on campus, documents, required forms, and even emergency notifications. Download the app on Android: https://bit.ly/3z1L88X or iPhone: https://apple.co/3BYAOAh.
