Autism Speaks It's Time To Listen!
Autism Awareness Day is April 2, 2021. Autism Spectrum Disorder is represented by different color puzzle pieces to represent the mystery and complexity of autism. Autism Awareness week is an important time to teach others how to support, educate, advocate and love. Please encourage your child to show support each day this week as we celebrate those who were born to stand out in the world.
Thank you Families & Staff!
PTSO would like to thank all the families and staff that were able to attend our restaurant nights at Dairy Queen and Panera. We made a combined total of $250! That money will be used to provide a snack to every student in grades 3rd-6th each day they take the AZ Merit tests. That's almost 1,000 snacks!! We are so thankful to be able to provide this for your children. We couldn't do it without your support!!
Our next PTSO Fundraiser Event will be held on April 21 (ALL DAY), at Someburros on Stapley/Baseline. Look for more information to come soon.

What Does It Mean To Be A Title I School?
Title I is the largest federal aid program for public schools. Schools can be designated as “Title I” if certain criteria are met. Title I is the federal government’s commitment to closing the achievement gap between low-income and moderate to high income students. These funds are used to help all students meet academic standards. Click the links below to learn more!
