Tauscher Times 3.14.22
Hello Power Campus!
We have some very exciting news to share. This morning, San Tan Charter School was officially renewed by the Arizona State Board for Charter Schools for a 20-year renewal for charter operations. This is the highest distinction and renewal a charter school can receive in Arizona, and I am proud to have been part of this renewal process. Currently in its 15th year of operations, San Tan Charter has now solidified its place in the East Valley through the year 2042! Thank you to all the families who supported San Tan Charter School’s continued growth and for those who will move it forward over the next 20 years.
We are officially on Spring Break! Office Hours are currently 9am – 3pm over the break with offices closed Friday, March 18 and Monday, March 21. Students start back to school with half-day schedules March 28-30, and parent-teacher conferences will be held March 29-30. Click here to reserve your conference times with teachers as we return from break and prepare for a great finish to the 2021-22 school year.
