(Deming) – There was an attempted robbery of a pedestrian early Friday morning in Deming.

     A 29-year-old man told Deming Police officials that he was walking in the area of Elm and Pearl at about 12:30 in the morning Friday when a man approached him, brandished a handgun, and demanded that the victim empty his pockets.

     When the would-be robber found out that the victim had no money or items of value on him, the robber yelled racial slurs, then got on a bicycle and rode off.

     The victim had only a sketchy description of the would-be robber.  He described him as male and wearing a white t-shirt and dark-colored shorts.

     Police are investigating.

Harvilee Moore
(Deming) – Deming High School officials are looking to return to a seven-period day with year-round classes.

     Superintendent Harvielee Moore said the issue will be discussed at a special school board meeting Thursday afternoon.

     Moore said the high school leadership team, led by Principal Janean Garney, has been studying the pros and cons of a seven-period day with a year-round schedule as part of their continuous improvement plan.

     Moore said they have been analyzing ways to improve teaching and learning opportunities and to continue to support improvement in student achievement, including test scores.

     Currently, Deming High students have only four classes each semester, and their schedule changes completely in January so they have a different set of four classes for the second semester each year.

     Moore added that high school officials have visited another district that successfully transitioned from a four/four model to a seven-period block.

     Garney and her staff will present their information to the board members and administration at Thursday’s meeting, set to begin at 1:15 p.m. in the board room of the Emmett Shockley Administration Building, 400 Cody Road.  The meeting is open to the public, but no action will be taken.

     Moore said a survey will be sent to parents soliciting input before it is decided whether to change the schedule structure.

     Also on the agenda for Thursday’s special meeting is the district’s Facilities Master Plan.
