Please take some time to get to know our school and our staff members. We offer a wide variety of clubs and programs, and we take pride in preparing our students for success in the 21st century. Please contact us if you have any questions.

A Message from Our Principal

Hope everyone had a great spring break! April will be a busy month with many important events taking place. The Arizona Academic Standards Assessment (AASA) that is required for all Arizona 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders will be completed. The AASA writing test will be on April 9 for 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students. The AASA oral reading fluency test will be April 10 for all 3rd grade students. The AASA ELA and math testing will be on April 15, 16, and 17 for all 3rd–5th graders. Please make sure that your child is well rested and has a good breakfast on those days. Please do not make appointments for students on these days. They need to be here all day without interruption.

April is the month of the military child. Every year, each state designates a day in the month of April for communities to “purple up” to show support for military children. This gives us a chance to put on our favorite purple gear and use the color in creative ways, a color which symbolizes the blending of the official colors of each branch of the United States armed forces. Arizona’s day to ‘Purple Up for Military Kids’ is April 25, 2025!

April is also Autism Awareness Month. This month provides an opportunity to increase understanding and acceptance of people with autism while fostering worldwide support.

Sincerely,

Leeanne Lagunas
