Happy Tuesday,

 

A HUGE thank you to all of you who braved the heat on Friday to attend our Recker Roundup! It was such a pleasure talking with so many of you, providing tours, seeing our students pumped up to be roadrunners. I also enjoyed seeing so many of you later that night seeing our Varsity Football Team put up another WIN. The pictures don’t really do the event and the feel of our community to justice. I also have to take this time to thank my administrative team, the teachers, staff, and parent volunteers who made the event possible. After a long work week everyone spent extra hours to show our Roadrunner Pride!

 

Our school values professional development for our teachers and staff as we continue to grow in our craft. Attached to this email you will see an outline of the half days for the entire school year. We are thrilled to announce our Recker Campus Specials/Electives Team will be offering Conference Day Camps during (October, January, and March) conference days until 4pm. Please see the attached flyer for the outline and the flyer for the Fall into Fun October Camps for October 3rd, 4th, and 5th.  All profits from the camp will go directly to the Recker Campus specials classrooms! A huge thank you to Ms. Kisler (STREAMS), Mr. Winters (Music), Ms. Tomasek (Art/PE), and Mr. Crooms (PE) for providing this experience to our children and families.

Guest Teacher Openings

Guest Teacher – we are in need of guest teachers to fill in when our teaching staff is out ill. If you have been a guest teacher for us in the past, please email me at aerrington@santancs.com  to get on the list for this school year. If you are new, please also reach out to me for the appropriate information.

Our goal to enhance the security of San Tan Charter School. To accomplish this, we have started a campaign to raise funds to install security systems on both the Power and Recker campuses for the 2018-2019 school year. gofundme.com/santan

This system is comprised of three parts:
• First, we will install a visitor screening system at the front desks called LobbyGuard. Learn more. (THIS HAS BEEN FULLY FUNDED)
• Second, we will install impact/shatter-resistant 3M Safety and Security Window Film on all the windows on campus.  Learn more. (COMPLETELY INSTALLED)
• Lastly, we will install 16 new surveillance cameras to cover entrances and outdoor common areas which will log multiple days of activity. 

For just $47 per student, this project will be fully funded. gofundme.com/santan
Thank you for your donation in this initiative to keep our students safe. gofundme.com/santan
