Excellent Schools New Mexico invests in talented New Mexico educators who launch, grow and reimagine transformational schools that put the needs of children and families first.
We strongly prioritize supporting local, entrepreneurial school leaders who have demonstrated track records of raising student achievement, especially for our state’s most at-risk students. We support these leaders by providing short-term, catalytic grants to help bring their ideas to fruition. We do not believe that our role is to generate – or dictate – ideas, but instead to support innovation by exceptional individuals who have spent their entire careers working for kids.
