Tauscher Times 7.20.21
Hello Power Campus!
Here we are just a week away until the first day of school! Our teachers have been back at it over the past week, dedicated to pursuing our high-level academic goals on campus while working to welcome back students in that special San Tan way. Our school this year has again been blessed with a wealth of talented and committed faculty members to deliver exciting new additions to the curriculum and who are dreaming up new ways to build on our school’s successful programs.
Please take a moment to read over this week’s newsletter for information to prepare your family and students for the start of school. If you are NOT receiving my emails, try adding (btauscher@santancs.com) as a contact so that my emails are not identified as “spam” in your inbox.
Let’s have a great last week before the start of the 2021-22 school year!

Both our Recker and Power Campuses partner with My Hot Lunchbox for a hot lunch option for kids.
