Magdalena Municipal Schools

Magdalena Municipal Schools is a school district headquartered in Magdalena, New Mexico. It covers Magdalena and Alamo. It consists of an elementary school, a middle school, and a high school.
In the 1950s American Indian children living in Alamo, previously attending distant boarding schools, began attending Magdalena schools after the Bureau of Indian Affairs had a dormitory built in Magdalena in 1957. In 1979 the Alamo [Navajo Community School] opened in Alamo, drawing Alamo students away from Magdalena schools.
In 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic in New Mexico, the administration decided to do virtual learning until at least Labor Day.
