The Cochise County Sheriffβs 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!
