Join the Saddle Mountain Family!

Reminder: Wednesday, Feb.25 is an early release day for teacher development. Students dismiss at 11:15 AM.

Transportation will be using alternative routes at dismissal. We anticipate a delayed drop off time for many buses. We thank you for your patience as we ensure our students all get home safely.
Next Thursday, February 26 is our 100th day of school! To celebrate we invite students and staff to dress like a 100 year old. Let's have fun!

Due to an accident, the I-10 is closed. We are currently assessing the situation to determine how or if it will impact transportation at dismissal. We will provide an update as the impact on dismissal becomes more clear.
Disney day! Stitch seems to be a favorite with the new generation:

Spirit Week starts Tuesday. There's some fun themes daily!

The SMUSD VEX IQ teams traveled to Mesa on Saturday for their last tournament of the regular season. All three teams had a great day with WWES moving into the 5th place spot in the AZ robot skills ranking, DSES moved into 11th place, and TES ended up winning 2nd place in the tournament. All three teams have received an invite to the AZ State Finals for the first time in SMUSD Robotics history. Congrats to all three teams and their coaches.



Thank you, Ms. Rang, for bringing your buddy Smokey the Bear to teach our K-1st students about fire safety.
