On November 14th, NAS-NM accepted Rachel's Challenge, and became participants in one of the most life-changing school programs in America today.  Founded by the family and frineds of Rachel Scott, the first student to die during the terrible events at Columbine high school in Colorado, the program focuses on ways to, inspire, equip and empower every person to create a permanent positive culture change in their school, business and community by starting a chain reaction of kindness and compassion.  It was an amazing event, with students fully involved in building a better school and a more compassionate community fro themselves and their families.  Following that presentation, student have formed a "Friends of Rachel" club, which meets weekly to discuss how we can create a kinder, better world.  For more information about Rachel's Challenge, please see www.Rachelschallenge.org.    We accepted the Challenge!

NAS-NM is very proud to have been selected as the 2011-2012 Charter School of the Year for New Mexico.  It is no surprise that with such great students, and an amazing staff, that NAS-NM was awarded this honor. A formal plaque was accepted by Dr. Janelle Garcia in recognition of a job well done!
