Get a Glimpse of Wintercomes
Our annual Wintercomes celebration is an opportunity for students across the grades to present their learning to family, teachers, friends, and community members in an authentic way. Students spend the fall semester diving deeply into their learning expeditions with their classmates, and developing projects that they then present at Wintercomes. Local filmmaker Arturo Anzures visited our school during Wintercomes for the past two years and created this short video that beautifully shows the magic of this event that is unique and essential to the Arts & Sciences experience.
Senator Heinrich inspired by Arts & Sciences students
Senator Martin Heinrich visited our school this spring and spoke with students about issues related to climate change. See the video of his speech on the Senate floor on July 8, 2019, and read his Op-Ed in the Santa Fe New Mexican.
Here’s an excerpt from the Op-Ed:
“Last month, I sat down with some of these young leaders in a classroom at the Santa Fe School for the Arts & Sciences for a discussion on how we should confront the climate crisis. I was impressed with the students’ depth of knowledge on climate science and their observations of how climate change is already impacting their daily lives. Their eagerness for action at both the local and global level gave me great hope.”
Best of Santa Fe!

Anser is an EL Education school, meaning it focuses on learning through projects and expeditions that regularly take studen..."The future is not some place we are going to, but one we are creating. The paths are not to be found, but made, and the activity of making them, changes both the maker and the destination." -- John Schaar
