School district in New Mexico, United States

Lovington Municipal Schools is a school district headquartered in Lovington, New Mexico.

The district is entirely in Lea County and includes Lovington. As of 2020 it had the second highest enrollment of any Lea County school district.

History

From 2019 to 2020 the district's enrollment fell by 300 students. One factor was restrictions in New Mexico during the COVID-19 pandemic in New Mexico, while Texas schools at the time lacked such restrictions.

LeAnne Gandy served as superintendent until 2022. The position then opened to Pam Quinones, the previous principal of Lovington High School.
