Dear Parents/Guardians,

STUDENT ATTENDANCE AT OUR SCHOOL COUNTS EVERYDAY!
Did you know that student attendance is one of the over thirty factors that the New Mexico Public Education Department looks at in deciding if R.V.T. is proficient? We MUST have 92% attendance through the entire school year to meet AYP. Last year our average attendance was 92.7%! Thank you for your diligence in sending your children to school! Please continue to help us by sending your child to school every day!
The attendance rate by grade level from August 10 to August 31 is as follows:
Kinder 94.63%
First grade 96.70%
Second grade 95.33%
Pre-school 71.36%
We are in School Improvement I-delay. We need to continue to keep our attendance high so we can get totally out of School Improvement I!

Allie Pelayo,  Principal
I am delighted to be a member of the Lordsburg Municipal Schools. I am a native New Mexican. I was born and raised in Deming, New Mexico. I have 5 children and 3 grandchildren. I have 9 years of experience as a teacher in public education in Deming, New Mexico, 6 years as an administrator in the state of New Mexico, and 7 years as an administrator in the state of Colorado. I hold a B. A. in elementary education; an M.A.T. in elementary education and an M.A. in school administration. All from Western New Mexico University.
I have worked with many different civic organizations within communities in gaining support for education. I have served on many and various boards such as School to Work, Chamber of Commerce and one for children at risk. Students are my business. I firmly believe that students can learn if the environment is designed to be conducive to learning. This includes such things as improving instructional materials, professional development, and having specialized resources for students that address their exceptionalities. Please come and volunteer at RVT,
parent involvement is essential for everyone’s learning.
