SCAR stewards one of the world’s
most comprehensive collections

children, and other visitors the
unique opportunity to learn more
about traditional art forms. The
program proposed here will help
preserve these valuable artistic
traditions and significantly
expend SAR’s efforts to educate
the public about the rich
cultural history embedded in
artistry of the Southwest’s
indigenous peoples. |

New Mexico is ranked last in
the nation for its graduation
rate. New Mexico spends more per
student than 19 other states,
even as our results remain at
the bottom. Where New Mexico
differs starkly from those other
states is how it spends those
dollars. Our state spends less
than 54 cents of every
educational dollar on
instruction. We are launching a
new initiative focused on
improving New Mexico’s education
system by getting more dollars
to the classroom where the
learning takes place. |
