Pojoaque Valley School District -

PVSD will be hosting two sites this summer for the New Mexico’s Summer Reading Program. This program is an innovative free program set to empower 10,000 students from incoming kindergarteners to outgoing eighth graders with focused reading instruction in small groups with trained literacy instructors. This program is being offered free to New Mexico families because reading interventions work. Students who receive focused instruction can get caught up in important reading skills and gain the confidence they need to be successful in all school subjects. Our goals are simple: enhance literacy, track reading progress, and boost confidence and skills in literacy.

This program will be during the month of June for four weeks, Monday-Thursday, from 8:00-1:00, in a 4:1 student/teacher ratio. Students will get focused reading instruction that will help them throughout the school year.

Our Pablo Roybal Elementary School first grade teachers and their students have ROCKED their reading challenge using Just Right Reader! The first graders have collectively read over 200 books since the beginning of winter break! This supports Goal 1 for reading proficiency in our Ignite the Path Strategic Plan! Let's keep up the momentum!

Our PVHS construction trades CTE educator, Randy Martinez, and his students, have made such great progress in creating a small living space! They are finalizing the roof, insulation, paint, and electrical details, and added tv, phone and internet cables. This is purpose-driven education in action!

Thank you to our Pojoaque Education Foundation and our Board President, Susan Quintana, for hosting and facilitating our annual Alumni Career Fair! Our students were able to ask questions and see themselves in those alumni who walked in their shoes at one point in time. This is a full circle educational experience and we are grateful for the time that all alumni shared your inspire our students!

Congratulations to Sophia and Amelia Rose from Ms. April's class!🤩

"I am excited to share that two of my students won 2nd and 3rd place in the Acequia Association of New Mexico Art Contest. The theme was, "Show us what acequia culture means to YOU!"

As part of our 4th-grade New Mexico Social Studies and NGSS/NM (cross-curricular) standards, we explored and modeled many New Mexico landforms and water sources. The timing of the contest was perfect, and some of my students were excited to share their connection to what we were learning!

"Their images were displayed alongside all entries at the NM State Capitol during Treaty and Acequia Day, February 2, 2026."

I'm very proud of their insight into our culture and the importance of our water sources in New Mexico and what it all means to our communities and farmers!" -- April Grant-Torrez, 4th Grade Teacher
