A 2023 survey conducted by BSP Research and Think New Mexico showed that a majority of New Mexico voters believe that a state law should be passed to direct more money to classrooms and student/teacher support, rather than to central district offices. πŸ’°πŸ«

Research by Think New Mexico shows school districts who invest more of their per-pupil funding to classrooms rather than to administrative offices, student proficiency rates in reading, science and math are higher, in addition to higher graduation rates.

Financial literacy is KEY! πŸ”‘ Last year, we spoke Financial literacy is KEY! πŸ”‘

Last year, we spoke with Sen. Antonio Maestas about the importance of financial literacy at the NextGen Personal Finance professional development event in Albuquerque.

School districts across New Mexico are recognizing the value of financial literacy education, and that's why today, 57 school districts have made financial literacy a graduation requirement! That's up from just ONE school district a year ago!

Think New Mexico has an ambitious education reform agenda, and we are excited to introduce you to our proposals over the next month! Make sure to follow along! πŸ’™
