Thank you for your support!
We want to take this opportunity and thank you and all PVSchools' voters for continuing to support student excellence by passing our bonds and overrides! Bonds have been able to keep our schools in top-notch condition and help to maintain a safe and secure learning environment. These projects and annual maintenance would not be possible without the generous support of our community. Here at Desert Cove, voter-approved bonds have made the following possible:
Structural concrete stem wall on playground
Interior and exterior paint job
New carpet
Replacement canopy in front of school
Awning over hand washing sinks
New playground equipment
ASAA (Testing Arizona's Academic Standards Assessment )
During the month of April, Desert Cove students will be taking the ASAA. This is an annual statewide computer-based test that measures how students are performing in Language Arts and Math and science deepening on the grade level.
Please see the schedule below for the testing dates for your child’s grade level. It will be important for your child to come to school on time and stay at school all day so that he or she has plenty of time to finish the testing. Therefore, please do your best to not schedule any appointments for your child on these testing dates. Thank you for your support.
Immunizations opportunity next week!
