Back To School Almost Here!

It’s hard to believe, but the first day of school is just around the corner! Albuquerque Public Schools (APS) starts on Thursday, August 7, the University of New Mexico (UNM) starts on Monday, August 18, and Central New Mexico Community College (CNM) starts on Monday, August 25. With classes back in session, there will be an increase in traffic around schools, so plan accordingly. Keep an eye out for students walking or bicycling to class, and slow down when driving near schools or campuses. Let’s start this school semester off right!
