Last week, LANL brought their traveling STEM experience, called Challenge Tomorrow, to Capital High School to showcase some of the Los Alamos National Laboratory's diverse research, innovations and people to communities in New Mexico!
Students got a chance to learn about some of the many things that they do at LANL! They got their hands dirty learning about irrigation, got to build a block tower with a robot arm and so much more!

Police in several states, including New Mexico, are investigating reports of school safety threats today. A similar threat was made to Santa Fe High School this afternoon, and police were dispatched to Capital High School as a precaution. There is nothing to substantiate the threat, which appears to be a hoax, as we do not have students on campus today due to Parent Teacher Conferences. Santa Fe Police have been visiting sites across the district as a precautionary measure.
