The Las Cruces Public School Board stood by their decision to implement a LCPS policy designed to promote equity in the classroom amidst critical public comment. The policy, which was adopted in April, calls for additional curriculum to be created that takes into account both the home cultures and languages of students.
During a second reading of the policy, School Board Member Maria Flores spoke about the impact it will have in the classroom.
