Good Afternoon, PDS families. We want to inform you that there was a report of a disturbance near the school neighborhood.

We wanted to inform you of a recent wildlife sighting in the PDS neighborhood. Animal Control has been actively monitoring a bear in the area and unfortunately, they have lost sight of it. While the bear was not seen on campus or near campus when Animal Control lost track of it, we believe it's essential to exercise caution during this time. Therefore, out of an abundance of caution, we have decided not to hold outdoor activities today. The safety and well-being of our students are our utmost priority. If you prefer to pick up your student instead of having them ride the bus or walk home today, please feel free to contact the office at 520-515-2970. We understand that this may cause some inconvenience, but we believe it's necessary to prioritize safety in situations like these. Rest assured, we are closely monitoring the situation and will keep you updated with any further developments. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
