A Note from Your Sonoran Foothills Administration Team-THANK YOU!
Dear Bobcat Families,
It’s hard to believe we are in the final weeks of the 2024–2025 school year! What an incredible year it has been—full of learning, fun memories, and so much joy. As we wrap up another amazing year at Sonoran Foothills, we want to take a moment to thank you, our supportive and dedicated community. Your partnership, commitment, and involvement help make our school the special place it is. We are truly better because of you.
May is filled with exciting school-wide events, grade-level celebrations, and meaningful moments that we know will leave lasting memories for our students and families. We encourage you to read through this month’s newsletter in its entirety so you don’t miss any of the fun or important details.
As we head into summer, we want to wish each of you a season filled with relaxation, safety, and time well spent with loved ones. Keep an eye out for our back-to-school newsletters, which will be shared in late summer with important updates and dates for the 2025–2026 school year.
Thank you again for an outstanding year. We are so grateful for your continued support!
With gratitude,
Warm regards,
Mrs. Colangelo, Proud Principal
Mrs. Harris, Proud Assistant Principal
