Distance Learning Devices
We kindly ask that you begin returning devices (and power cords) that were borrowed for distance learning at the beginning of the year. Please include the original cardboard box with student name and grade level clearly labeled. You may drop off at the school front office, Monday - Friday, between 8am and 3pm. If you have any questions, contact Mr. Clement.
Please click here for the current number of cases on campus who have tested positive for COVID-19 and are in quarantine.
WEST WORLD VACCINATION SITE
Arizona will be launching a state indoor vaccination site at West World, opening April 22nd. Please note traffic information below and reach out to Mr. Clement if you experience any issues. All traffic (site signage and parking attendants) will be directed to enter the vaccination site from the Pima/101 FWY frontage road. There should be little to no traffic on 94th Street. However, those aware of the 94th Street, Thompson Peak Pkwy and Bell Road entrances, may try to find a way to use those entrances to enter the site. All participants will park and walk up to the tents, as this is not a mobile vaccination site. Lines should only form outside of cars waiting to enter tents.
The deadline to purchase tickets is Thursday, May 13th. Tickets must be purchased in advance, as they will not be sold at the door. Questions? Please contact Ms. Zayra Rosado.
