Letter from the Principal

Dear San Tan Families,

I hope you are all doing well! Happy week before break! This week we are busy wrapping up the semester. Please anticipate an email from your classroom teacher to sign up for Winter Conferences in January. I cannot wait for you to hear the amazing things your child has accomplished this semester.

Please do not forget that we are starting enrollment for 2021-2022 school year. Please save your student’s spot for next school year as soon as you can. I am so excited for all the wonderful things that we have planned for next year.

The front office will be open during break on the following dates from 9:00-3:00.

12/21-12/23

We would be happy to help with any questions you may have.

Gifted Testing

San Tan’s annual Gifted Testing event is approaching quickly!

If you are interested in having your child tested for giftedness, please complete the digital Parent Request Form and process the $50 Co-Pay online.  Students in grades K through 12 are welcome to participate in our Spring testing session.   If your child is already identified as gifted, they do not need to retest.  Gifted testing will begin in mid- February.

Note:  If your child is currently in a gifted class and identified as ‘provisional’ they will automatically be retested, you do not need to send in the recommendation form. : -)

**Gifted Testing Requests are due no later than January 15th.
