Dear Huachuca Mountain Families, We are pleased to inform you that school will continue as normal today, Friday, March 28th. The construction company has successfully set up a temporary repair to the sewage system. While they have provided port-a-potties as a precaution, they do not anticipate they will be needed. Over the weekend, the company will continue working on the sewage system to complete full repairs. A special thank you to the City of Sierra Vista and all of the crews who worked tirelessly through the night to ensure we could open school this morning. We appreciate your patience and understanding, and we look forward to a great day of learning.

Huachuca Mountain Families. Due to ongoing construction in the area, there is an issue with the sewage pipes affecting Huachuca Mountain. As a result, there is a possibility of a delayed start or even a school closure tomorrow, Friday, March 28th. The construction company is actively working to resolve the issue, and we will provide you with the latest update before school starts in the morning. We appreciate your patience and support as we navigate this situation. Thank you for your understanding. SVUSD Administration
