Dear Alice Vail Middle School Families,
This week marks a significant milestone for our students as we commence our Reading AASA (Arizona's Academic Standards Assessment) followed by the AASA Math Assessments.
We extend our sincerest appreciation to you, our dedicated Falcon families, for your unwavering support in ensuring that our students are present and punctual for these assessments. Your commitment to their education is invaluable, and we are immensely grateful.
As we gear up for these assessments, we encourage our Falcons to prioritize their well-being by getting plenty of rest and nourishment. A good night's sleep and a nutritious breakfast are essential foundations for optimal performance. We have every confidence that our Falcons are prepared and eager to showcase their knowledge and skills.

AASA TESTING and ATTENDANCE UPDATE
We will be having a drawing for students who attend daily for AASA testing. Everyday a student is here for a test they will be given a slip to fill out to be entered into a drawing to win prizes. We are still looking for donations for big items to use for the drawing, but so far, we have a signed volleyball from the U of A volleyball team, tickets to the Sugar Skulls, an Alexa echo show, and a cell phone!
