Energy Day in 6th grade at PDS!
Our 6th graders wrapped up their Energy Unit with an action packed Energy Day, and it was a blast!
Students rotated through STEM stations testing Thermal Energy with ice melting contest.
Force and Motion with balloon cars where finalists competed and winners earned gold medals--the excitemnt was real.
We explored potential and kinetic energy using rubber band sling shots to knock over cans, and tested chemical energy and it's transfer into motion by launching bottle rockets with baking soda and vinegar.
A huge thank you to SSVEC for bringing out their bucket truck and teaching students how to safe around electricity. WaterWise was here today too teaching us about water energy and how this important resource is being impacted--even right here in Sierra Vista.
We are so grateful for our parent volunteers who manned our stations , Cochise County Sheriff's Department and Deputy Felix, who helped students finish answering questions on their recording forms.
None of this would have been possible without the support of our amazing community parentees and volunteers. Thank you for showing our students what learning looks like the dustdevil way!

💙🌪️💙A HUGE thank you to Brittany from the Nancy J Brua animal shelter for coming out and sharing her expertise with us. She taught us so much about how to be safe around animals, how to care for them properly, and how to keep both animals and people safe. We also loved her reminder about the importance of being mindful of our environment and the role we all play in protecting it.
We truly appreciate Brittany's time, her passion and dedication she has for her community and we love that her family is a part of the Pueblo Del Sol Dust Devil family!💙🌪️💙

Dear SVUSD Families,
We are excited to invite you to Talk with Terri, a special community listening event with Superintendent Terri Romo.
Thursday, January 29
5:00–6:00 PM
Rothery Education Conference Room
This event is not a presentation or formal meeting—it is a listening tour designed specifically for Superintendent Romo to hear directly from our families. This is an opportunity for parents and guardians to share their questions, concerns, experiences, and ideas as we work together to support students and strengthen our schools.
Superintendent Romo’s priority is to listen, learn, and better understand what matters most to you. Your voice is important, and your feedback will help inform the future of Sierra Vista Unified School District.
Everyone is welcome, and we encourage all families to attend and take part in this open, welcoming conversation about our schools, our community, and our future.
We hope you will join us for this important opportunity to be heard.

Good Morning PDS Families,
We are happy to share that power has been restored at PDS, and the school day will continue as normal.
Due to the earlier power outage, today’s lunch will consist of cereal and milk as our cafeteria works to safely resume operations. Parents are welcome to bring a lunch for their student if they prefer.
Please note:
Kindergarten students were able to eat lunch as scheduled.
Lunch originally prepared for 5th and 6th grade students cannot be served, as it is no longer within the required safe temperature range.
Some grade levels may experience a delayed lunch time as we work through these adjustments.
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we prioritize student safety and well-being. We appreciate your continued support.
Sincerely,
Sincerely,
Principal McDaniel

Good Morning PDS Families,
We would like to provide an update regarding the ongoing power outages at PDS.
SSVEC has shared that the current estimated time for power restoration is 1:30 PM today. We are scheduled to receive another update from SSVEC at 11:30 AM to determine whether power may be restored sooner.
At this time, enough food was prepared to serve A and B lunches, which includes Kindergarten and 6th grade students. If power is not restored, we will not be able to provide lunch for the remaining grade levels.
At 11:30 AM, a determination will be made regarding whether students will be dismissed early for the day. Parents are welcome to come to campus to pick up their students at any time.
As a reminder, PDS currently does not have phone or internet service, so the school is unable to respond to calls or emails at this time.
We appreciate your patience and understanding and will continue to share updates as soon as they become available.
Sincerely,
Principal McDaniel

Today, PDS staff had to call 911 for a student experiencing a medical emergency. EMS are at PDS and the student’s parents have been notified. There was no threat or danger to PDS. Thank you to our staff and EMS for their care and quick response.
Today we celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. 🌈
He taught us to be kind, fair, and to stand up for what is right.
Let’s remember his dream by using our words to help, our actions to care, and our hearts to include everyone. 💙
We hope everyone enjoys their day off, and we can’t wait to welcome everyone back at school tomorrow! 😊
