Class Notes: Week of November 24th
We are very thankful for our families, and want to wish everyone a wonderful holiday!
Thank you to our families for their support through the A+ judging process. Through the Arizona Education Foundation, schools apply to be certified as A+ schools. We wrote the application for A+ over the summer, and were notified that we moved into the judging round this fall. Our judges came over two days to evaluate classrooms for excellence, meet with students, teachers, staff, and parents! Now the waiting begins again….we won’t find out until February if we are selected!

Huachuca Mountain families, we heard you! Huachuca Mountain will be offering a K-8 program next year. We know our families are looking for options. Next year, 7th graders will be added to our Bolt family. Sports will be offered at JCMS, as well as band, and we are working to make decisions about electives. Students will change classes, and we are creating a Middle School wing to truly give students a middle school experience. We are even planning a Honors program for students. We will hold a variety of Town Hall meetings for parents and community members to share ideas as we develop our program.
Don’t forget, enjoy the week with your family, school resumes on December 1st.
