Commit to never bringing a gun to school and to never using guns to solve problems.
Since 1996, over 10 million youth nationwide have signed the Student Pledge Against Gun Violence. The Pledge encourages young people to abstain from contributing to gun violence, including bringing a gun to school.
The Pledge is available in older and younger versions, as well as English and Spanish.
Anyone can take the pledge, even teachers, parents, and community members!

KEEPING OUR STUDENTS SAFE BY PREVENTING GUN VIOLENCE
For many young people, concerns about gun violence are part of the world they navigate every day.
SFPS Gun Violence Prevention Week raises awareness, promotes early intervention, and highlights practical steps that help keep students safe and supported.
This campaign is anti-gun violence, not anti-gun, and recognizes the importance of outdoor and hunting traditions for many New Mexico families.
We are empowering students to shape a culture of safety in their schools by:
Taking the Student Pledge Against Gun Violence
Use Say Something to report safety concerns.
Reach out if you need help with a conflict, stress, or other challenges. Talk to a trusted adult, or call 988 or another helpline.
Thank you for supporting Gun Violence Prevention Week.

Hello SFPS families,
The district has been made aware of a rumor circulating encouraging a potential student walkout planned for tomorrow, February 25. At this time, the district has not received confirmation of a student-led effort, and unlike previous walk-outs, this situation does not appear to be organized by students.
The safety and supervision of our students remain our highest priority. We believe school remains the safest place for students. Please be aware that students who leave campus during the school day without an excused absence or without following proper school procedures will be marked with an unexcused absence in accordance with district policy.
We encourage families to speak with their students about the importance of staying in class and following school expectations. SFPS staff will continue to focus on maintaining a safe, supportive, and productive learning environment for all students.
