Bernalillo High School

We have a special privilege to honor Benny Shendo Sr. In 1953, Benny, from Jemez Pueblo, starred in track for Bernalillo High School. That year, in a time when there were no classifications, and all schools competed with each other, Benny won the state final in the mile with a time of 4.44. Benny was the first state champion for Bernalillo High School, and also the state champion in this event for all schools regardless of size. Later that spring, he lost his grandfather who raised him, Benny needed to leave school to help support the family and the farm. He was subsequently drafted into the military during the Korean war and was never able to return to BHS to finish his diploma. On behalf of the Board of Education of the THE DISTRICT of Bernalillo Public Schools, we proudly recognize Benny Shendo Sr. as the first state champion in our history, and we also honor him posthumously with an honorary diploma. #THEDISTRICT #community #FirstStateChampion #OnceASpartanAlwaysASpartan #SpartanEmpire

I want to thank the entire community for the wonderful celebration we were able to share with the Bernalillo High School class of 2023. The evening started out with challenges, but through a true community effort, we were able to appropriately honor our class of 2023, along with our BHS legacy honoree, Benny Shendo, Sr. A special thanks to the class of 2023 sponsor, Miranda Apodaca, our activities coordinator, Jennifer Jaramillo for planning this event well enough that the quick change was still possible for us to make this happen. For all of us, rain is a special blessing, even if it causes inconvenience. I was humbled by so many of our Pueblo families who reminded me of the powerful importance of rain in their traditions. They regarded the entire unfolding of the event as a special celebration especially because of the rain. In fact, one parent this morning let me know that by us having to move the event at the last minute, the rain became part of this celebration and that brought her gratitude. Our communities are widespread, but we are also together as ONE, just as Representative Lente said in his inspiring speech. I thank each of you that attended for your patience, but also for the enthusiasm you shared with our graduates. What started out as a challenge was a special night for all. Best, Matt #THEDISTRICT #community #BPS4kids #ClassOf2023 #SpartanEmpire
