Hosted by the New Mexico Construction Alliance, in collaboration with the Las Cruces Public Schools’ Career Team, this annual hands-on career fair welcomed approximately 1,100 students for an exciting day of learning, exploration, and career discovery.
From framing and roofing to welding and beyond, students got hands-on experience with interactive activities led by industry professionals and vendors. These experiences gave students a firsthand look at the many rewarding career opportunities available in the construction industry.
A HUGE THANK YOU to our sponsors, industry partners, vendors, and volunteers! Your time, resources, expertise, and commitment to investing in our students made this event possible. By sharing your knowledge and providing meaningful hands-on experiences, you are helping inspire the next generation of skilled professionals and building a stronger workforce for our community.
We are grateful for partners who believe in our students and are willing to help them see what their futures can look like!
Together, we're building skills, opening doors, and creating opportunities for tomorrow's workforce!

Photos like this offer a remarkable window into the earliest chapters of our district’s history. The clothing, the hairstyles, the brick walls and even the name Las Cruces Union High School remind us just how much has changed since 1947. But one thing has remained constant: students stepping forward to lead, serve and help shape their school community.
For almost eight decades, generations of students have added their own voices, traditions and stories to the history we share today.
This is Las Cruces Public Schools, then and now.
Join us Friday night at the Field of Dreams as the #8 SEED Las Cruces Bulldawgs take on the #9 SEED Rio Rancho Rams in the first round of the state championships!

This photo captures a simple moment of student life at LCHS, but it also shows just how much the way students connect and communicate has changed over the years. No texts, no group chats, no smartphones in every pocket, just a phone on the wall and a few friends gathered nearby.
Some things change. The conversations, friendships and memories made at school never do.
This is Las Cruces Public Schools, then and now.
