In 1965 the district planned to give teachers higher salaries, but the budget auditor of New Mexico schools, Harry Wugalter, chose not to approve the budget. As a result, the district had the possibility of reducing teacher pay.[3]
In 1994 the enrollment was 820. That year the district began a satellite learning program where some content was delivered remotely.[2]
