Last Wednesday, 7 of our students attended a very competitive interview event with 100 other students from SFHS and Capital. They showed up dressed to impress and confident in their interview skills. They nailed it! All of our students were placed in their first or second internship choice. Congratulations to Sophia, Lindsay, Alexa, Alana, Francheska, Luis & Berny!

ATC Students joined the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for Keep Santa Fe Beautiful, celebrating the unveiling of a new mural. Located on Siringo Road across from Santa Fe High School, Keep Santa Fe Beautiful hired a local artist to design the mural and partnered with local volunteers and ATC students to see this vision come to life. Together, they took a quarter-mile-long cinder block wall—that had been tagged and painted over too many times to count—from an eyesore to a beautiful new piece of public art!
