It is really hard to believe we are already in November wrapping up our fall athletics and activities. I am thankful the weather has made a turn and it finally feels like our typical Arizona fall/winter. It was a beautiful Friday evening for all our homecoming festivities and celebrating all our seniors from football, band, cheer, pom, swim and dive, cross country, and sport medicine trainers.

Freshman Families - I am happy to share our Freshman class will participate in a Career Expo on Friday, November 15th during RTI time. This is an event specifically scheduled for our students due to them missing out on the district career expo we missed duriing our campus shutdown in September.

I wanted to highlight our FAFSA event happening this Tuesday. This is a virtual event.

I wanted to share some of the work that has been done the past six months in developing our campus master plan. We recently shared the plan with our Governing Board and community at the October board meeting earlier this month. This plan addresses immediate needs on campus with the A, B & C buildings - affectionately known as "the dungeon". 😄 We have a good chunk of money earmarked for these upgrades from the previous bond; however, the outcome of the upcoming bond will have a direct impact on how quickly we can start the project as well as at what level. Our hope is to be able to complete the rebuild of buildings A, B & C all at once.

Game days are right around the corner! Avoid the long lines by purchasing a student or family pass! Both passes will be digital this year. Student passes can be purchased in the bookstore or online through our webstore and family passes can only be purchased online through GoFan.

It's never too early to start thinking about graduation. Jostens has opened up ordering for the Class of 2025 Graduation products to be ordered. Please note that the only item required to be ordered through Jostens is the cap and gown unit to ensure it's the right color purple. Please visit the link below in order to purchase your graduation items. Sibling caps and gowns from previous years may also be used. In this case, you would only need to order the tassel. If your previous senior was class of 2024 and they decorated their cap, you would need to call Jostens at their store to place the order at 602-765-7337.
Their extended deadline is Thursday, October 31st. This is the third of many deadlines that they will send out throughout the year. Caps and gowns are delivered to the school for our on-campus distribution event in March. We do encourage you to get your order in by the December deadline to ensure your cap and gown arrives in time for our spring distribution.
