Sierra Vista Unified School District

Joyce Clark celebrated some PBIS Superstars at last week's Governing Board Meeting. Corynn, a 7th grader, is always positive and is there to help others when needed. Ruben, an 8th grader, is respectful all the time and is always encouraging others. Ms. Hays, Ms. Lassiter and Ms. Dion are the Coyote Staff Superstars. All of them are always empowering others to do their best and keeps an eye out for safe, respectful and responsible behaviors. Thank you to all of our PBIS Superstars!!!

Do you have an American flag that is no longer in a serviceable condition? Buena JROTC is hosting a flag retirement ceremony on Thursday, November 10th from 4-6pm at the Southern Arizona Veterans Memorial Cemetery. Everyone is welcome to attend.

We celebrated our PBIS Superstars at a recent Governing Board meeting. Buena celebrated 4 students for being superstars at school by being the best examples of PBIS. Jaxson is a freshman who is always helpful and focused! The sophomore superstar, Ariella is always showing her leadership skills in class. Nor, a junior, always ready for anything. Maddox, our senior superstar, is a role model to those around them and a team player! Not only are our student's superstars but our staff is too! Ms. Henkin, Ms. Floss, and Mr. Esch were honored for always going the extra mile for their students! Congratulations to these Superstars and thank you for always being safe, respectful and responsible!

Tonight's Governing Board meeting will be held in the Conference Room at Rothery Education Center. The district is celebrating our PBIS Superstars and needs a little more room for all of the students, staff and their families. The meeting will still begin at 6pm and will be streamed on our YouTube channel.

The Cochise County Sheriff’s office identified an event at a Cochise County school about a student bringing a firearm and ammunition to school on August 29th. This event did NOT happen at a Sierra Vista Unified School District school. We will always notify all parents in the event an actual firearm is ever brought on campus. Students and staff safety is a top priority and parent communication is critical. Thank you to all area law enforcement for protecting all Cochise County schools and children.

Who is ready to start school?!?!?! All SVUSD schools have their first day tomorrow. We are excited to have everyone back after the summer break. Just a few reminders: Buses will be out in the community so please be cautious when driving. There are a lot of first day jitters so routes may take a little longer than normal. Drivers, be on the lookout for all school zones and remember to slow down. The national free meal program ended last school year so meals are no longer free for all students. Be sure to load your MySchoolBucks account so your students can buy meals if they need. All students at Carmichael Elementary still receive free meals. Tomorrow is an early release day. Elementary ends at 12:45pm, JCMS ends at 2:15pm and Buena ends at noon. We cannot wait to see everyone tomorrow!

We are excited to start a new school year!!! Next Monday all SVUSD Elementary Schools will be hosting an Open House from 4:30-6:30pm. All registered families are welcome to attend to take a tour of the school, visit classrooms, and meet the teachers and staff.
