Principal Report-
We Discussed about the “Don’t meth with us” presentation and felt that the presentation should
be shared with parents before a decision is made to show the students. Mrs. Belmonte-Sapien
will put together a list of programs for next year and have parents vote what they would like their
children to see.
The building is planned to be finished by April. We were able to get the basketball hoops from
APS.
Budget will be set at the April Governance Council meeting. We received $171,000 extra for
our budget based on enrolment. We have also requested extra money from the state.
We are not sure what how grading by the state will be this year for schools since PARCC will
not be given.
We are trying to have the band play in the rotunda in Santa Fe. 6 th Grade will be going on an OSI
to talk about the pollinator meeting.
Vice Principal/Title 1 Report-
Family engagement brochures were created by two students Carley and Amber. Once
corrections are made, they will be copied and put in the front of the school. They did a great job
