The first step in setting up transportation for your student is to complete the Bus Ridership Form, agree to the Ridership Policies, and be assigned to a bus route. Once assigned, you will be able to utilize the My Ride K-12 App!
Completed Bus Ridership Forms must be returned to the Transportation Department at transportation@alamogordoschools.org. Questions? Please call 575-812-6017.

π’Rooms- Important Information!
We are excited to be rolling out this new communications tool for the 26-27 school year, but please be aware that as we transition to this tool, you will still be receiving information from your student's school and teacher via email. For families new to our district, updates to student emails are still happening, and as we finalize those updates, parents will begin to receive the Rooms alerts. No action is needed from you at this time.
Our goal is to keep our families informed and connected, and we appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to get everything finalized. Thank you

We hope you have a fantastic year!

ππAs we get ready for the 2026-2027 school year, we encourage all students and families to review the updated Alamogordo Public Schools dress code. Our goal is to create a safe, respectful, and distraction-free learning environment where every student can learn and succeed.πππ
