🍂🎃 October was a whirlwind of excitement in SVUSD, and it's time for a month in review! 🌟
🏫 From educational honors to festive fall events, SVUSD schools were buzzing with activity. 👩🏫👨🎓
🎉 Throughout the month, several SVUSD schools held educational honors and PBIS assemblies, celebrating academic achievements and fostering a positive school culture. Village Meadows even had a fantastic field trip to the Cove! 🚀🏞️
🕺💃 Huachuca Mountain hosted a groovy Sock Hop Dance, while Town and Country had a Fall Festival. Bella Vista and PDS Elementary set the spooky mood with their Boo Bash and Fall Festival. JCMS introduced the "Trunk or Treat" tradition, a big hit among students and families. 🕷️🎃
🚒 The Sierra Vista Fire Department and Fry Fire Department set up mini smokehouses, making fire safety fun and educational for our young learners. 🔥
🧡 On October 18th, we all stood against bullying by wearing orange across our schools. Red Ribbon Week was a blast, with students dressing up and embracing themed spirit days. Carmichael and Town and Country had some furry friends visit, teaching students about animals and respect. 🐕🐾
🍁 Mid-month, we all enjoyed a well-deserved fall break, recharging before diving into the second quarter. 🌟
🎭 Buena Fine Arts brought Halloween vibes with Halloween Shorts, and College and Career Night provided valuable resources for high school students and families. Colleges, the military, and local employers shared scholarship and career info. 🎓👩🔬
👻 As October wrapped up, SVUSD schools hosted costume and character parades, ending the month on a creative and festive note. 🎉🎃
🙌 SVUSD thanks all parents and families for their support, fostering a strong sense of community. The enthusiasm and engagement in October are a testament to the dedication and spirit of our students and families. 🤗📚👨👩👦👦

🌟🧠 National School Psychology Week (NSPW) is here, and the theme is "Let's Grow Together"! 🌱🎒
From November 6th to 10th we celebrate the incredible role of our school psychologists in fostering student success. 🏫👨🎓👩🏫
School psychologists collaborate with families, teachers, administrators, and professionals to create safe, healthy, and supportive learning environments, strengthening the connections between home, school, and the community. They bring expertise in mental health, learning, and behavior to help our children and youth thrive socially, behaviorally, emotionally, and academically. 🌈📚
Let's honor and appreciate the vital work of school psychologists! 🙌❤️ #NSPW2023 #LetsGrowTogether #StudentSuccess 💪🧡

Last week the Bolts celebrated their academic achievements with an awards assembly.

Special recognition was given to all 4th through 6th grade students who scored proficient or highly proficient on the Arizona Academic Standards Assessment. Way to go Bolts!
Dear Parents and Guardians,
Due to adverse weather conditions and the presence of lightning in a 10 mile area, we will be implementing a delayed dismissal procedure today at Huachuca Mountain Elementary School. The safety of our students is of paramount importance, and we are taking these precautions to ensure their well-being. During delayed dismissal all students who ride the bus or walk home will be kept in the school until the lightning has passed.
Parents are welcome to pick up their students by coming to the office to sign them out. Please bring a photo ID with you to the office.
We sincerely appreciate your understanding and cooperation during these weather-related delays. Your child's safety is our top priority, and we are committed to making informed decisions that ensure their well-being.
Thank you for your consideration and support.
Sincerely,
Mary Garrett-Perez
Huachuca Mountain Elementary
Huachuca Mountains parents and guardians we would like to invite you to our annual Character Parade on October 31st. The parade will start at 8:30 am and you will be able to receive visitor passes at the double gates to the playgrounds. Please be advised about the guidelines for our Character Parade: Costumes must be school appropriate- not too scary, no toy weapons and masks cannot cover the entire face. Hope to see you there!

Huachuca Mountain families come out and join us for our PTO Sock Hop Family Dance on Friday, October 20th. There will be refreshments available and a photo wall. The dance floor is open from 6 pm to 8 pm. This is a family event, there is no student drop off. Hope to see you on the dance floor in the gym.
October is National Bullying Prevention Month. Bullying can impact a student’s education, physical, emotional health, and their safety and well-being.
Together we can create communities that are kinder, more inclusive and accepting for all students. In support of National Bully Prevention Month we are encouraging all SVUSD students and staff to wear orange on October 18th to show unity against bullying.
Parents and guardians, just a quick reminder that tomorrow, October 17th is picture day! We can't wait to see all the beautiful smiles!
Does your student have a computer at home for their personal use? Would you like for your student to be creative and explore? Or being able to work on assignments from home on a school device? SVUSD is pleased to offer the opportunity to all parents to check out a home Chromebook for all registered SVUSD students. Through the Emergency Connectivity Fund we were able to purchase Chromebooks for home use in order to close the homework gap and support connectivity for all students. For more information please contact Atina Haynes at Atina.Haynes@svps.k12.az.us or visit the office at your school to receive the application.
All SVUSD schools and offices will be closed for fall break from October 9th through 13th. We are wishing all SVUSD families a safe and joyful fall break.
