August is Back-to-School Month, and we’re celebrating faculty members Carlos and Jessica Balladares, former student parents who now guide Santa Fe Community College (SFCC) students toward their academic goals. We’re also inviting former students to join us for a new opportunity crafted just for alumni and sharing upcoming events for the whole family.
