Class Notes: Week of November 3rd


Exciting News!
We are proud to share that Huachuca Mountain has earned the highest score in Cochise County, an incredible recognition of the hard work from our students, staff, and families. Based on our state-issued A rating, we truly are a top choice for education in our area. Additionally, the Governing Board will vote on November 19th to approve Huachuca Mountain as a K–8 school. Stay tuned for more exciting updates!

Cool Morning, Warm Afternoon = Sweatshirt Season!
Arizona weather keeps us on our toes! Chilly mornings and warm afternoons mean lots of sweatshirts left behind on the playground. Just last week, more than 20 were collected from the field! Please remind your child to label their clothing and check the Lost and Found regularly. Families are also welcome to stop by and take a look anytime.

Community Partnership Reminder
We are grateful for the continued support of the Methodist Church across the street. Beginning November 7th, food pantry distribution trucks will be in their parking lot on the first Friday of every month. Please be mindful of parking lot entrance and exit signs and use extra caution during these times.
Families in need of food assistance may apply in the church office after 9:30 a.m.

Thank you for being such an important part of the Huachuca Mountain community! Let us know if you need anything.
