Good morning. Any student who did NOT get a sports physical after March 1, 2025, must get a new one prior to the 2025-2026 sports seasons. Please take advantage of this opportunity and get your physicals as soon as possible! Please DO NOT wait until school starts or the week practices begin to get your sports physicals. New forms will be available in the front office.

Closing of the 2024-2025 School Year Ash Fork Schools ended their school year yesterday, May 1, 2025. On Monday, we had our 8th Grade Promotion parade. On Tuesday we had our Kindergarten promotion and ended our regular seasons for both softball and baseball. The softball made the state playoffs and traveled to El Capitan/Fredonia, and won 16-4, moving them on to the seasons round. They will play at St. David in Wednesday, at 4 PM. On Wednesday the high school had their end of the year picnic at Kaibab Lake. Last night the Class of 2025 made history. They are now the largest class to graduate from Ash Fork Schools, with 33, but 32 walked. Many of these students graduated with certificates from MICTED, such as construction, nursing, automotive, welding and other areas. Three of these graduates earned their associates degree from Yavapai College: Jamie Keele, Aspen Bond and Hailey Hughes. We are all so very proud of this class. Congratulations to them. Even though school is over, there are a few more things taking place. The middle school will be going on their annual canoe trip on Lake Mead. STUCO has their final blood drive of the year on Wednesday. We hope you can join us and donate. It starts at 11:30 AM and goes until 4 PM. It was a great year and we look forward to the next! See you all at the end of July!

Earlier this year I had entered to win scholarship funding through the Wishes for Teachers program sponsored by Palo Verde charities. I ended up being one of the teachers selected. I opted to buy some new seating options for our classroom. We received some new carpeting, chairs and cushions. These have helped bring some comfort and variety to our class. The wobble chairs are the most coveted and students really enjoy getting the opportunity to use them. Palo Verde Charities really helped our students this year and for many students to come. We are super Thankful!

A heartfelt congratulations to Uriel and Karen for being selected as our Athletic Spartans of the Year. Their athletic abilities and leadership skills stand out, significantly impacting their team's performance during any given season.
