According to updated guidance from the Public Education Department, staff are not considered fully vaccinated unless you receive your booster by Jan. 17, 2022 - or are less than six months from your second dose (or a single dose of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine).
Currently, employees who are not fully vaccinated will be required to surveillance test once a week beginning Jan. 17.
To help get everyone in compliance, LCPS will host a vaccination clinic with assistance from the Office of Emergency Management and the NM Department of Health on Jan. 7, 2022 at the former DMV location adjacent to the Dr. Karen M. Trujillo Administration Complex from 10 am. to 2 p.m. To reserve a spot, please use the DOH portal, www.vaccinenm.org, and use the event code LCPS2022.
If you would like to get your vaccine sooner, PMG will be hosting Covid vaccine clinics with the Pfizer vaccine on Mondays at the New Mexico Farm and Ranch Heritage Museum, 4100 Dripping Springs Road, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and on Wednesdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Doña Ana County Government Center on Motel Boulevard. Registration is available on the DOH portal: www.vaccinenm.org.
Over the winter break, LCPS will continue to host three testing sites for students and staff. Those sites will be at Las Cruces High School, Mayfield High School and Organ Mountain High School Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. except for Dec. 24.
