"Tips by Text", a free innovative kindergarten readiness text message program for parents and caregivers of 4 -year-olds, is being launched throughout many New Mexico school districts this fall.
Caregivers who enroll in "Tips by Text" will not only receive a free $25 merchandise card, but they’ll be signed up to receive informative and fun text messages offering tips on how to support their child's development. Families are eligible to participate if their child was born on or before September 1, 2019, and has not yet started kindergarten. Funded by the Institute of Education Sciences at the US Department of Education, this program serves families in over eighty-two New Mexico school districts including Dulce, Taos, Española and Pecos school districts.
Parents and caregivers may determine eligibility and sign up by visiting the website: tipsbytextnm.org or by calling Rebecca Kilburn at: 505-910-4862

This interactive exhibition celebrates the central role that Pueblo Baseball has played and continues to play in many community members’ lives at the 19 Pueblos. It tells stories of Pueblo Baseball in looking at the past, present, and future through interviews, photographs, videos, and memorabilia. Critical skills in athletics, judgment, adaptation, and perception as pitchers, batters, runners, catchers, and umpires are passed down through the generations. Pueblo Baseball games carry on a legacy more than 100+ years old with male team members from 15-55 years old playing together at once.
In creating a space for Pueblo communities to be in dialogue with each other about this century-old tradition, the exhibition serves as an introduction to the ways that Pueblo Baseball shapes Pueblo identities and reflects Pueblo value systems to all audiences. A Community Scrapbook Board will facilitate a space where Pueblo community members can contribute their stories and photographs. During the run of the exhibition, the IPCC will be offering a Baseball Card making activity to school groups. The IPCC team will also be coordinating a panel discussion program with Pueblo Baseball players.
