Congratulations to our Class of 2022 Summer Graduates!
The summer commencement ceremony was held at the Bryan Fant Theatre at Capital High School this morning, where 33 students crossed the stage and received their high school diploma!
The Board of Education is looking for your input on the redistricting of school board member boundaries! This is NOT the rezoning of schools, the change is only to the boundaries of school board members.

The third stop on our voyage is a SFPS powerhouse: Capital High School.
Named for the oldest and highest capital city in the United States it resides in. With this honor comes the additional bonus of Capital High School's special programs that make it unique amongst the rest:
These programs include:
- Being an AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) National Demonstration School of Distinction which supports the student's personal choices of how to prepare for their future through strong and committed leadership for all students’, college readiness through AVID best practices, a committed team of trained AVID educators and being a showplace for a strong AVID system.
- Advanced Placement, honors and dual credit courses, bilingual programming recognized by NMPED and Exceptional Student Services Education to support and foster the highest levels of excellence to compete in this challenging world.
- Medical, CT and Business Pathways bolstered by classes, clubs, and activities to prepare for these challenging and necessary fields. Expanding Art programs in the 3rd largest Art Market in the US, and Community Partnerships that provide opportunities for growth, learning, and leadership skills.
The mighty Jaguars also feature a formidable sports legacy and a variety of extracurricular activities to further enhance student's interests outside the classroom such as marching and concert band, choir, orchestra, drama, dance, National Honor Society, Model Legislature, DECA (for career interests in marketing, entrepreneurship, finance, hospitality and management), HOSA-Future Health Professionals, Interact Club, to promote international understanding, WAVE (Wellness Ambassadors to Voice and Empower), which promotes resiliency and protective factors, Mariachi Club, Spanish Reading Club, NM Dream Team, Supercomputing, Environmental Club, Naciones Unidas, which involves research and debate, and Culture Club.
All it takes is a deeper look into what Capital High has to offer that can change your life towards your dreams and future success.
