Students and staff had the ultimate rock paper scissors challenge last week! As part of our 2nd quarter PBIS kickoff, 3rd to 6th grade students each got a bead necklace. They had the chance to play other students and teachers to earn more beads! The finalists had a showdown at the end of the day, and the winner was 6th grader, Airany Lopez!

This month, our PBIS winners could choose to enjoy a Fancy Lunch with the Principal! Students were treated to a special dining experience with fancy dishes and wonderful conversation. Instead of traditional prizes, they took home fun memories and unique experiences to remember.
Weβre so proud of our students for showing positive behavior and making our school a great place to learn and grow!

We are the highest rated school in all of Cochise County! Our state letter grades were release today, and our score places at the highest ranking score in all of the County and ranks us solidly among the top schools in the state. When we think about school choice....we are the top choice !
In Arizona, earning an βAβ letter grade from the Arizona Department of Education is the highest recognition a school can receive. It means our students are learning and growing at exceptional levels every year!
An βAβ school shows strong achievement in reading, writing, and math, but it also means something even more important β our students are making outstanding growth. Whether a child starts ahead or needs extra support, they are improving and succeeding.
This rating also shows that our school helps all students learn, no matter their background or starting point. It reflects our teachersβ dedication, our studentsβ hard work, and the support we receive from our families and community.
Together, weβve built a school where every child can learn, grow, and thrive β and thatβs what truly makes us an βAβ school!
