📢 We Want Your Input!
The New Mexico Activities Association (NMAA) made changes to its student-athlete eligibility rules for the 2026–2027 school year, including a change that would allow a student to transfer schools one time without losing varsity eligibility.
At Dexter Schools, we value the voices of our students, parents, staff, and community members. Before any future discussions, we'd like to hear your thoughts on how these proposed changes could impact our district.
📝 Please take a few minutes to complete our anonymous community survey and share your perspective.
