However, do not send the spray to school. If you have questions, please do not hesitate to call the school at 505-966-2200.

Good morning Eagle Families, As education continues to evolve, it is imperative that we ensure our assessment methods align with the best interests of our students and the broader goals of their education. In recent years, there has been a growing recognition within the educational community about the potential impact of grading practices on student motivation, learning outcomes, and overall well-being. The educators in Belen Consolidated Schools, are committed to providing the best possible learning environment for our students. Thus, BCS is forming a committee that will critically examine our grading policies and recommend potential improvements. Eventually, the committee will involve various stakeholders, including teachers, students, parents, and administrative staff, to gather diverse perspectives on the strengths and weaknesses of our current grading practices. To assist us in getting the process started please take the time to fill out this short 5 question survey, which will provide us with needed data. The survey can be accessed by using this link: https://forms.office.com/r/Hi7NDbcTrQ
