This is just a reminder that a rep from ASU will be here tonight to share about ASU Sync. ASU Sync provides people in St. Johns an opportunity to pursue a teaching degree 100% online at low/no cost. Please share with anyone you know who might be interested.

SJUSD was just identified in this national publication as an "exceptional district" for the work we do to help students become proficient in math by 8th grade. The study focused on school districts around the country that are helping students in math above what would be expected given the economic circumstances in their respective regions. As you can see from the graph, SJUSD was one of only 10 Arizona districts that received this distinction. We are so proud of our students and staff!

We were really sad to hear of the passing of Mary Romero. Mary was a longtime employee of the district, interacting and helping hundreds of students throughout her career. When Mary had to step away from work to take care of her health, we missed having her fun personality around campus. Our thoughts go out to her family at this time. She will be missed!
