Dear Valentine Families,
If you have specified a Bus Drop off location for your student, that is the designated drop off spot that they will be dropped at through the entire school year.
Unless the school is given a written notice of a Bus Drop off change, or there is a verifiable family emergency reason for your student to be dropped elsewhere, there will be no changes allowed day to day to students' bus drop off. Daily changes may result in errors and we want to make sure your student is dropped off accurately from day to day.
Please contact the office if you have any questions @ 928.769.2310
Thanks, and have a great day!

Dear Valentine Families,
We want to assure you that per our last post regarding two confirmed cases of Foot, Hand, and Mouth Disease, we are taking extra precautions to protect students and staff from the virus.
We are applying COVID measures on the buses with another full cleaning and sanitization this evening and will have masks available for students who request them.

Dear Valentine Families,
We have received word of two confirmed Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease cases in our 1st/2nd Grade classroom.
Given that students will be on the field trip tomorrow, May 11th, in an enclosed bus for an extended period of time, please make sure they aren’t displaying any of the symptoms, and if so please keep them home, so as not to spread the virus.
"Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease is seen most often in the summer and early fall. Asymptomatic people can spread the virus to others.
SYMPTOMS may include:
• fever
• reduced appetite
• sore throat
• sores or blisters on mouth, palms, and soles 1-2 days after fever
• drooling
The incubation period is usually 3-6 days.
Transmission may occur by contact with secretions from the nose, mouth, and throat, stool-to-mouth (fecal-oral) spread by way of unwashed hands, or foods contaminated by unwashed hands.
PREVENTION
Proper hand-washing with soap and water. Cleaning and disinfecting surfaces, soiled items (including toys)."
[The quoted information above regarding Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease is from the AZ Dept of Health Service/CDC.]

Thanks, and have a great evening!

There have been significant changes to the application this year. The entire application must be completed and brought to the office by the enrolling parent/guardian. Make sure to complete all required signatures, and to include all required supporting documents.
Your students' AM Bus Stop and PM Bus Stop must be filled in on the form (pg. 4 of 4 on the application form). Unless there is a family emergency, the stop specified in your students' application will be their permanent pick up/drop off location for the entire school year. (Bus Stop List available on website)

The Arizona Residency Documentation Form must be brought into the office with the required supporting documents. IF you are completing an Affidavit of Shared Residence because you do not have residency documentation, then that form must be signed by a Notary Public.
