The district is experiencing internet issues at multiple campuses. Please be patient as we work to correct the problem.
Thank you
We were made aware of a social media post this evening that references "Buckeye local" and a threat against schools. We notified Buckeye police and they told us they were made aware of the post yesterday and determined it refers to an area in the state of Ohio. Authorities in Ohio are investigating. There is no threat to our schools.
The district office will be closed on September 11, 2024 from 7am - 11am for training. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
