South Campus Sentinel

Hello Skyline Families!

It's finally Spring and we have many activities planned these final weeks of school. I want to take a moment though, to express my gratitude for your continued partnership in helping our students thrive.

Our collaborative focus for our learners should be on the power of perseverance in achieving academic progress. I ask that you continue to encourage your children to read each evening and complete homework assignments, as this impacts their academic standing. Your ongoing support plays a crucial role in your child’s progress, and we want to remind you that not only are your child's teachers here to assist, but all of our school staff is dedicated to supporting you every step of the way.

Thank you again for being such an important part of our school community.

Yours In partnership,

Principal Gant

Our 3rd through 8th graders will continue testing through the 2nd week in April. Learners will take the Arizona Academic Standards Assessments (AASA) in reading, writing and math. The testing window began the week of April 1st and ends the week of April 11th. Please work hard to limit appointments that will interfere with testing.

Many of you are up to date on where your student is academically, just from communication with teachers or your Infinite Campus Parent Portal. Our 4th quarter Progress Report grades will be posted in your Parent Portal at the end of the day on Friday, April. 18th.

If this is your first grading period with us, we do not send hard copies home because you have 24 hour access to grades through your portal. If you need assistance with logging on for the first time, please contact your registrar at the front office.

We are proud to be able to sponsor a youth soccer team for our campus. Practice started April 2nd and we had over 60 pre-k thru -2nd grade student athletes sign up! Looking forward to watching them grow in their soccer skills.

The first three habits, 1. be proactive, 2. begin with and end in mind, and 3. put the first thing first, are grouped together in a category called private victory. These are the three habits that we focus on with our Kindergarten - 3rd grade learners.

This month, our kindergarten - 3rd grade students will focus on the habit of your teacher's choice. Please reach out to your child's teacher/s to see which habit they selected and how you can support at home.

The link to sign up for this year's Summer School can be found on Class Dojo. Your child must be enrolled for the 2025-2026 school year in order to attend Summer School with us.
