Itâs the second week and things look fairly normal in Berna Chavezâ kindergarten classroom at La Merced Elementary. The students sit on the alphabet rug and listen to her explain the lesson on sight words, keeping mostly fidget free.
The primary difference between Tuesday morning and any other day, is she and all the students are wearing face masks and students sit spaced apart, three to a table.
Directional arrows on the floor in the hallways remind everyone to âkeep right.â This is learning in the age of COVID-19.
After months of remote and online classes, students and teachers in the Belen and Los Lunas schools districts returned to campuses last week and began learning in person.

Eagle’s search for a new town manager netted 48 candidates during an abbreviated 18-day job posting.

Mike Piscoiotta, the court administrator for the 5th Judicial District, proposed a unique plan for the former Eagle Town Hall building on Second Street. He asked the town board to allow him to use the space for a youth boxing program.
