On Feb. 2 2010, Albuquerque Public Schools district voters approved a comprehensive school facility and educational technology package in general obligation bonds and a mill levy. This summer, a portion of that was used to construct a KANW training classroom and expand the music store. To celebrate the completion of the construction, KANW hosted an open house on July 22.
“The classroom addition is in response to increasing enrollment in recent years for the KANW Radio Broadcasting Class. We had been using a multipurpose conference, but the class had just outgrown it,” said Michael Brasher, KANW’s General Manager. “Educa-tion is a key component of KANW’s mission.”
These much needed improvements add-ed approximately 2,000 square feet to the 40-year-old building. The KANW Music and Merchandise Store also has a new look and we’ve added another production studio. These changes will improve security to KANW and improve customer convenience for shoppers.

ing in the jam session sponsored by Faith, Hope, and Jazz every Thursday evening at the Monte Vista Fire Station, and often sits in with bands that perform around town. Most recently, she performed with her friends in a local jazz trio, and the Open Space Visitor’s Center to usher in the Harvest Moon/Lunar Eclipse.In addition to her engineering work at Sandia, Allison has also taught pub-lic speaking. “Which is probably why I’m not that nervous talking on the air,” she said. But the operating board was a slightly different matter. “I’m so glad I finally had the opportunity to take the KANW broadcasting class. I feel much more confident now.”“I’ve been listening to KANW for years,” she said. And she’s a regular supporter. “So, to be on the air, sharing my favorite programs with my friends, is wonderful.” Allison has three grown children, all married, and two teenage grandchil-dren. Both her son and one of her sons-in-law are educators with APS. Her younger daughter and her daughter-in-law are also teachers. “I’m proud to have so many educators in the family.”
