A Message from the Principal
Welcome to March Yasuhara Families,
Wow, it's hard to believe we're quickly approaching the mid-point of our third quarter. February sure flew by! We had so much fun! Our ASB ran a fantastic spirit week, we had a MLK assembly, and enjoyed our February fling. Our non-tardy party was fantastic, and over 200 of our students qualified to participate. Way to get to class on time, Phoenix!
March has a lot to offer as well:
Wrestling and 8th grade basketball continues this month with matches and game times available on our website. We're so proud of the hard work and dedication of our athletes!
Our Band, Strings, and Choir concert is scheduled for March 6th at 7:00 pm. We're so excited to see our students perform!
We look forward to seeing you all. It's going to be a great March!
Sincerely,
Stephanie Lundberg

Spanish Class Fun
Our Spanish classes have worked so hard this year, but have also found time to celebrate. At the end of the year in December, we made piñatas. Students broke them and received many treats.
In January and February, students started the year with a lot of new language and they are truly rising up to the challenge of a High School language course. ¡Qué chévere! Our Phoenix Spanish students are "magníficos"!

Lost & Found Cell Phones
The main office has several mobile phones in the lost and found. If your student has lost their phone this school year, please ask them to check the office to see if anyone has turned it in.

Mid-Year Reminder
Please take a moment to evaluate your student's school supplies. Many students are low on pencils, pens, and lined paper--supplies they need to be successful at Yasuhara. Now is a great time to replenish these critical items.
