Principal’s Corner:

Dear Maldonado Community,

Welcome back for the beginning of the 2008-2009 school year!  Hopefully all of you had a safe and restful summer!!  I look forward to seeing each one of you at our second annual ice cream social on Friday, August 8th from 1:00-3:00pm in our school court yard.

             I would like to welcome back our continuing Maldonado families as well as our new students and families and encourage them to be active participants in our school community.  In addition, I’d like to welcome our new superintendent Dr. Elizabeth Celania-Fagen.

             We are always looking for ways to enhance communications to all          stakeholders.    By using the internet, you can access information about our school.  The website is available to you 24/7 – on line at http://edweb.tusd.k12.as.us/Maldonado/.  Please place this web site on your web Brower’s favorite list.  This site provides you with instant access to all sorts of school information.  District and school information can also be found can be found at the Tucson Unified School district website at  http://www.tusd.k12.az.us/

ARRIVAL TIME FOR SCHOOL

All students should arrive at school by 7:49am.  The cafeteria is open at 7:30am for breakfast.  The first bell rings at 7:49am and students should be line up outside their classroom door no later than 7:54am, when the second bell rings.  On rainy days,   students should go directly to the cafeteria and wait for their teachers to pick them up.  Please remind your child to come to the cafeteria to eat breakfast or to wait outside under supervision until the first bell rings.  Teachers have their planning in the   morning before school starts and after school; so they can get ready for the day.  Please remember exceptions can be made for a student, and/or if a parent needs to speak with their child’s teacher before/after school, however, arrangements should be made in advance with the teacher.
