Happy 2024, team! It was a soft start filled with much excitement! There is a 3-day weekend on the horizon! Let's crush this first month of 2024!

FUSD recognizes that we need to post positions for the 2024/25 school year much earlier than April if we are to attract top candidates and compete with the Phoenix area districts. I will need to gather your intentions prior to Jan 5th (PAST DUE for some of you) in order to prepare for our staffing meeting. Only 23 of your have completed this form. It is for classified and certified. Please fill out by 5pm Monday. These answers remain confidential. Thank you for your attention. 2024/25 Planning Form
Gradebook Information
The closing date for Grade Book is end of day on Friday, January 12, 2024. This extension was given as a result of the full day of school on January 5. Please remember to "Mark All Complete" once you have finalized student grades. If for any reason you have to make a change after January 12 at 5PM, you will need to contact Lynette Hammit.
White Fleet Training
The Bus Barn is offering white fleet training. You can view the classes here.
GRATITUDE IS IMPORTANT!!!
Let's make time to acknowledge our amazing teammates!
~ Thank you all for showing support to our classroom teachers on Friday with assuring 1 hour of prep time for all teams. This was a scramble and I appreciate your teamwork and flexibility.
~ Thank you 3rd grade team, special area teachers and support staff for collaborating on a few schedule changes to increase instructional minutes for our students! The Master Schedule will be updated shortly for all to access.
Please consider supporting Mr. Sergio
Sergio Padilla has been our dance instructor for over 10 years at Marshall. He will be returning for Magnet Monday this semester. Sadly, he lost his mother three months ago and now suddenly lost his father on Wednesday. He is in need of some support right now. We are teaming up with PdH and Killip to do all we can for him. We will prepare a card for all to sign. If you would like to donate money to help with expenses, you can bring in cash or check Erin in the front office or Venmo Jillian Hernandez (Jillian-Hernandez-26 last 4 digits 7845). All three schools will collect money through Friday, January 12. Thank you for your consideration. Even the smallest amount will go a long way when we all come together.


Reminder: The deadline for all 2023 professional learning activities completed and wanting to be considered for potential FUSD salary advancement must be submitted to the Frontline system by midnight on 1/31/23
Additional information as well as the steps to submit the required information for salary advancement consideration can be found on the Salary Advancement Information Webpage (FUSD staff must be signed into the website with their FUSD login credentials to access all content on this site).
