Long Variant (Charter, Dark)

Dear San Tan Family,

Thank you to all of the families who have shown patience with the Power Road construction. Our community has done a great job overall being safe, kind, and adjusting to the inconveniences. Please note that the dirt service alley on the north side of campus is not open for through-traffic to Recker Road.

 

Tomorrow on campus is our first half-day, "A" Day Schedule (periods 1-3) with school releasing at 12:06pm. Coming up we also have a 3-day weekend, with no school on Monday, Sept. 2, in observance of Labor Day. 

 

Congratulations to Coach Cartwright and the football team. Last Friday night the squad knocked off the defending state football champs, Scottsdale Christian, 23-6. Join us at home for Friday Night Lights this week at 7pm for the first home game of the season vs. Shadow Mountain. Our Lady Roadrunners will open up the high school volleyball schedule tomorrow evening at home against Phoenix Christian. JV starts at 5pm followed by the varsity at 6pm.
