Today is April Fool's Day. I promise not to trick you with anything in this newsletter : )
We are under two months away from the end of the school year! (True...)
State testing has been going well for our students with record attendance and participation. We appreciate the support from the parents, including everyone who donated snacks for students! (Also true)
Congratulations to our JH Cheer Team who won the CAA State Championship Competition this past weekend! The girls and coaches are incredible! (Also true)
Saturday school was a big success. All the kids who attended loved it and want to come again! (Okay, maybe not true)...
But seriously, thank you to our families for working with Mr. Stuckey to help us reach our goal of a 95% attendance for our school. Currently we are at 91.84%

State Testing Schedule
A couple of items to remember for state testing:
No phones or Bluetooth devices are allowed to be with your student at the table with them while they are testing (this can lead to test invalidation)
Students may bring their own wired earbuds for testing (if they do not want to use the ones issued by the school)
Students need to bring their school-approved school laptops and they need to be charged and ready to go (make sure students also have their chargers!)
There are just 2 weeks left until TAXES are DUE! Make your donation and help our school.
Arizona’s Tax Credit Program: Every dollar you contribute is returned to you as a dollar-for-dollar tax credit on your Arizona state taxes. For married couples filing jointly the maximum credit is $400 and for single filers it’s $200.
Donations made between January 1, 2025, and April 15, 2025, can be claimed as a credit on either your 2024 or 2025 state tax return.
Earth Day Project
"Upcycling" Quilt for House of Refuge
On average, it is said a US consumer throws away 81.5 lbs of clothing annually and the fashion industry is responsible for 20% of global wastewater on the planet (earth.org).
San Tan looks to curb this issue by re-purposing unused clothing to produce patchwork quilts for families in need. To help us with our project, we ask that each student brings a piece of cotton fabric (5” x 5” incher or larger) or a piece of cotton clothing to their English class in the following color(s): black, white, green, yellow, or gold. Together, we will cut the fabrics into squares and sew them together to produce quilts for House of Refuge, a local non-profit providing housing and shelter for families in need.
Please bring cotton fabric or a cotton clothing item to school on 4/22/2025.
Do you have sewing skills? Please consider volunteering in the sewing room on Earth Day! Sign up here:
