LEADERSHIP LETTER: WAYNE GRANGER, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR |

Dear Dragon Families,
November marks the start of preparations for open enrollment in our school district and at Flagstaff Academy. In normal times, we would be busy with daytime tours and evening open houses, welcoming groups of prospective families to visit our school. With the pandemic, we are unable to hold in-person visits. Instead, we are excited to announce the launch of our new virtual tour, which includes leadership messages, student testimonials, and an interactive walk-through our hallways, classrooms, and even our Greenhouse!
But as great as this new tour is, the best advertising is word-of-mouth of our current families. We encourage you to share the awesome programs happening here at Flagstaff Academy with your friends and family. If you know of a family who would benefit from our amazing Dragon education and community, please share this information with them, as well as this link to learn about our enrollment process..
Enrollment information for 2021-22 can be found on our website. Our 2021-22 "Intent To Return" letters for current families will be emailed on Tuesday, December 1 at 7:00 a.m. (MST), so look for that email in your inbox. As well, our 2021-22 Online Application will also go live on Tuesday, December 1st at 7:00 a.m.
Thank you for your support,
Wayne Granger

DRIVELINE AND TRANSPORTATION |
|
With the use of both parking lots for morning arrivals of K-5 students, we will be reverting to our traditional traffic patterns for safety and efficiency. If you approach from the east and Sunset Street, you will enter the south lot with a right hand turn. If you approach from Pike Road and Hover Street, you will enter the west lot with a left hand turn.
Signs and cones will be out starting Monday, November 9th to prevent the opposite turns into these lots. Doing so creates backups and essentially is cutting in line of our families. Let's all do our part. Just know that you will approach and leave from the same direction.
