The New Mexico Public Education Department established the Equity Council requirement for all schools in the state to ensure that the important work of the Yazzie - Martinez Lawsuit was carried out by the experts at the local level. The Raton Public Schools Equity and Innovation Task Force is a great opportunity for us to come together as a community to learn, coordinate, and take action steps to support our students and prepare them for the future. The Task Force is an invaluable initiative where we need a committed group of individuals from around our community to participate, collaborate, and take actions to improve outcomes for students.
