❤️ Heart Health Awareness Month – Let’s Get Moving! ❤️

February is dedicated to raising awareness about heart health. Strong hearts start with healthy habits — and it’s never too early to begin.

Families can support heart health by:
✔ Taking a walk together
✔ Preparing heart-healthy meals
✔ Limiting screen time
✔ Encouraging daily physical activity
✔ Talking about the importance of wellness

Our school is proud to support student wellness through physical education, nutritious meal options, and encouraging active lifestyles.

Small daily choices make a big difference. Let’s keep our hearts strong — together!

NMAA Two-Strike Policy Reminder:
Corona Public Schools would like to remind students, parents, and community members of the New Mexico Activities Association (NMAA) Two-Strike Policy, which applies to all NMAA-sanctioned athletic and activity events.

Under the Two-Strike Policy:
A “strike” is issued when a student-athlete or coach is ejected from a contest or receives a qualifying disciplinary action as defined by NMAA.

First Strike: Results in disciplinary consequences as determined by NMAA and the school, which may include suspension from contests.

Second Strike: Results in suspension for the remainder of the season for that sport or activity.

This policy is in place to promote sportsmanship, safety, and respectful behavior at all NMAA events. Unsportsmanlike conduct, inappropriate language, or actions toward officials, opponents, teammates, or spectators may result in an ejection and a strike.

We encourage all students, coaches, parents, and spectators to model positive behavior and support our athletes in a respectful manner. Thank you for helping us maintain a safe and sportsmanlike environment for everyone.

For additional details, please refer to the NMAA Handbook or contact the school administration.

After-School Supervision During Athletic Practices-

Corona Public Schools would like to remind families that student-athletes are not responsible for supervising younger siblings during sports practices.

Younger siblings who remain on campus after school must be accompanied and supervised by a parent or legal guardian. Coaches are responsible for supervising student-athletes participating in their specific sport and are not responsible for the care or supervision of siblings who are not part of the practice.

To ensure the safety of all students, we ask that families make appropriate arrangements for younger children after school hours.

Thank you for your cooperation and support in keeping our students safe.

Thank you Corona Cardinals for patiently waiting for our Basketball Schedules to be posted. Here are the most recent schedules for our Junior High Girls and our Junior High Boys Teams. Our Junior Varsity High School Boys Team will also play against Vaughn. Unfortunately we have had difficulty securing them games so their season is very short. We look forward to this season even though it is unique.
