On April 11, 2018, The Albuquerque Journal published an op-ed by NewMexicoKidsCAN Founding Executive Director Amanda Aragon on proposed school turnaround plans from Albuquerque and Dulce:
Whatever you do, please don’t let our schools keep failing our students.
That’s my urgent message to the New Mexico Public Education Department (NMPED) on this April 11 deadline for Albuquerque and Dulce to submit their second-chance school turnaround proposals for Dulce, Hawthorne, Los Padillas and Whittier elementaries. For the sake of our students, I encourage community members to stand with me in sending this message. We can’t afford anything less than real transformation in our public schools.
