Sanger Elementary School

March 2nd is Read Across America Day, a day to celebrate one of our favorite activities at Hobbs Schools... READING!

This day was established by the National Education Association (NEA) in 1998 to help get kids excited about reading.
On National Read Across America Day, students, teachers, parents, and community members around the nation come together to read books and celebrate the joy of reading — join us and read a good book together!

Be on the lookout for fun days of dress up, reading and celebrating the literary genius of Dr. Seuss within the district for Dr. Seuss Week , March 2-6!
This is an annual, school-focused celebration held around March 2nd (the author's birthday) to promote reading, often aligning with National Read Across America Day. It features themed, book-based dress-up days—such as wearing stripes, crazy socks, or green—alongside classroom activities, crafts, and reading sessions to foster a love for literacy!

Sanger is truly blessed to have Adrianna, Margarita, and Korina working in our school! They stepped up to help and be flexible when we had plumbing issues. These ladies are a great example of the Gold Standard! Thank you, ladies!

A sunny shout out goes to Aurora Andrade for stepping in when our custodians were out!

Friendly reminder that Hobbs Schools will be closed and there is no school for students on Monday, February 16th, as we are having a professional development day for our staff.
We will see students back in class for regular schedule on Tuesday.
GO Eagles!

Congratulations are in order! Our boys' swim and dive team secured first place at the 3-4 District NMAA championship held in Artesia today. We surpassed the powerful Artesia Bulldogs by 12 points. Clovis Wildcats took third place with 82 points. Our girls' team delivered another impressive performance, securing third place, narrowly edged out by Clovis and Artesia. All of our kids had some incredible swims today and had personal best times. Well done Eagles!
