When the weather didn't cooperate on Friday, we brought the party indoors—and our community brought the magic! Huge thanks to all the amazing PAC families, staff, and volunteers who adapted on the fly, decorated incredible indoor "trunks," and kept the treats flowing. Seeing our halls filled with so much laughter and creativity made it an unforgettable afternoon.

Our students brought their A-game, their best handshake, and a whole lot of confidence to Round 1 of The Amazing Shake! 💼✨
The room was buzzing Tuesday as our students went head-to-head with community volunteers and guest judges. From practicing firm handshakes and making direct eye contact to engaging in quick, professional conversations, they showed incredible poise, grit, and charisma. It’s not easy to put yourself out there, but our students rose to the challenge and truly shined! 🌟
A massive THANK YOU to all our amazing guest judges who volunteered their time to interview, encourage, and score our students. We couldn’t do this without your support!
Congratulations to every student who participated—you made us so proud. Keep that confidence going as the Top 6 head into the next round! 🚀

🧮 Solved math problems and made their selection by sitting in different lifeboats
🔬 Tested buoyancy with sink-or-float science experiments
🧊 Braved freezing water to feel the chill of the North Atlantic
🍽️ Enjoyed an authentic, formal first-class dining experience
Swipe through to see our young historians in action! 📸👇

We're excited to welcome our students back this week for a legendary new school year!
Important Reminder: Students who do not attend school during the first three days may be withdrawn from enrollment.
If your child will be absent, please notify your child's school office as soon as possible. Letting your school know ensures we understand your student is still planning to attend Clovis Municipal Schools this year.
We can't wait to see our Wildcats back in the classroom!
Returning Student Registration Update
We've received several questions about returning student registration, and we want to reassure our families that your student's enrollment for the 2026-2027 school year is secure.
As part of our transition from Skyward to Synergy, all existing student records were successfully imported into the new system. That means we already have your student's information and their school assignment for the upcoming school year.
Who should complete New Student Registration?
✅ Students enrolling in Clovis Municipal Schools for the very first time
✅ All Pre-K students who have never been entered into the district's student information system.
✅ Kindergarten students who have never been entered into the district's student information system
New Student Registration can be completed through this link: https://nm-clovis-psv.edupoint.com/PXP2_OEN_Login.aspx
If you need assistance accessing your ParentVUE account, please contact academic.services@clovis-schools.org. Be aware that due to a high volume of emails, you may not receive an immediate response.
Important for Kindergarten Families:
If you completed your kindergarten registration in Skyward before we transitioned to Synergy, you do not need to complete the New Student Registration form. Your student's information has already been transferred into Synergy.
What about returning students?
Returning Student Registration (verification) will open soon. This process allows families to review and update contact information, emergency contacts, health information, and other important details before the school year begins.
Although verification has not yet opened, your student is already in our system and assigned for the upcoming school year. We appreciate your patience as we complete the final steps to make Returning Student Registration available.
We'll share another update as soon as verification opens.

It's always a fun blast from the past visiting your elementary school! On Friday, two Zia Alumni, Scott Elliott and Matt Elliott came back for a visit. They had a great time touring around the school and seeing all the changes from when they attended Zia!
Zia Ambassadors led the pledge at this week's Curry County Commission meeting. Talk about dedication! The last day of school was on Thursday, and these students still showed up bright and early on Friday to show the importance of being a good citizen!
