Gallup area residents rally at GMCS offices on May 12, 2025

Gallup, NM - On Monday May 12, 2025 Gallup and surrounding area residents met on the sidewalk in front of the GMCS administration offices to ask the school board and elected leaders for transparency and accountability about our children's education, and to oppose the Trump Administration's assault on education.

Trump is proposing to Congress that the federal government pull back billions of dollars in K-12 education investments. He has said he wants the Department of Education to be closed "as soon as possible."

Participants also wanted to bring attention to allegations of ethics violations by GMCS superintendent Hyatt.
