Arcade follows the Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS) framework, which creates an environment that allows all students to thrive. As part of that framework, teachers acknowledge students who are exhibiting Spartan Strong behaviors, being kind, safe, and responsible, by giving them a Spartan Strong ticket.

A raffle is held every week using these tickets, and Spartan Strong winners are announced on Fridays. The lucky winners then pick out a prize in the office. You can watch the announcement of the winners in the video below!

Thank you, Spartans, for being kind, safe, and responsible!

The last day to turn in tickets for the Quarter 4 raffle is May 17th!

Two of our district committees, the Curriculum and Standards Committee and the Facilities and Transportation Committee, are looking for representatives from Area 2 (Arcade's trustee area). We are looking for individuals who are team builders, great communicators, inquisitive, and problem solvers to step into the role of these two committee openings.

If you are interested in putting your name forward for either committee, please contact Arcade's principal, Lindsey McManigal, directly via email at lindsey.mcmanigal@sanjuan.edu

With temperatures rising, please remind your students to bring a refillable water bottle to school. We have two water filters located on campus that students can use to refill throughout the day.

Students who attend school on a daily basis do much better than those with frequent absences. Even a few days can make a difference. We encourage your student to come to school daily, on time, and to schedule medical appointments after school when at all possible.

Early Dismissals:

If you know of an appointment in advance, you may send a note in the morning with your student. You may also call the office before picking up your student, or we can pull your student from class after you come to the office.

If it is necessary for your child to attend a medical appointment during school hours, please get a note from the doctor to clear your child's absence.

You must show some form of identification upon pick up. The person picking up the student must match the name/s we have on file. Thank you for your understanding.

Please avoid early dismissals during the lunch period or within 30 minutes before the end of school. If you must check out during these times, please allow EXTRA time when picking up your student.
