Spring Sports Are Under Way!
Please visit our calendar for dates and events. Our athletes love to see supporters in the stands!
Spring Sports Begin on February 5th. If your student plans on playing sports this year, they must have the athletic pack emailed or brought into the Activities Office before the start date! If the packet is not received by that date, they will not be able to practice or participate.
In this packet, there are instructions on how to complete the ATS online profile, which needs to be done every year by every student.
Also in the packet are the instructions on how to complete the BrainBook. This only needs to be completed once and will not be required year after year.
Click Here to download the packet. You may fill it out and email it to Bert Carrillo or you may bring it directly to the Activities Office. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact Bert Carrillo at 520-584-7707. LETS GO SABERCATS!

These free classes are designed to help students develop new skills, explore their interests, and make new friends in a supportive and engaging environment. With a wide range of classes to choose from, there's something for every student to enjoy and benefit from. The monthly schedule of classes is now available, and registration is open. We encourage all families to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity for their children to learn, grow, and connect with their peers in a fun and educational setting.
Community Partner Spotlight | Children’s Advocacy Center of Southern Arizona
We are excited to spotlight our incredible collaboration with the Children's Advocacy Center of Southern Arizona. Through our partnership, we have been able to deliver empowering and impactful Guiding Good Choices Class, which provides essential support and education for parents. Guiding Good Choices equips families with invaluable information and tools designed to safeguard preteens and teens from potential risks. By the end of the program, parents not only learn how to conduct family meetings to share the lessons they have learned but also to plan enjoyable family activities. This regular quality time fosters strong bonds, promotes health, and integrates the skills learned in the program into everyday family life. Geared towards families with children aged 9 to 14 (or in fourth through eighth grade), this program will be offered at all four resource centers. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Children's Advocacy Center of Southern Arizona for their unwavering commitment to our community and for the invaluable support they provide to our students and parents.
