Greetings YASD students,  

Effective on Monday, August 18, 2025, students who arrive to school late will turn their phones into the main office at Aspire or Mrs. Flaumenhaft's office at YCHS where it will remain until the student leaves for the day.  Students who are late will not be allowed to have their phone at break.  Students who arrive on time will lock their phones up upon arrival but still be allowed to have them at break.  At Aspire, school begins promptly at 8:00 AM. YCHS students' arrival times vary based on what arrival time the student agreed to when he/she registered.  For example, if the student signed up for the 7:30 session and showed up anytime after 7:30, he/she is considered late and will have to turn in his/her phone to Mrs. Flaumenhaft's office where it will remain for the rest of the day.  Be on time if you don't want to lose your phone for the entire day.  Policies in our state have recently changed and we MUST implement them in order to remain compliant.  We have been as lenient as we can possibly be with the students in mind.  In Arizona, a new law (House Bill 2484) restricts student access to cell phones and other personal electronic devices during the school day. This law applies to all public and charter schools in the state. The law aims to limit distractions and improve focus in the classroom.

YASD has the distinct honor of welcoming Michael DeLeon of Steered Straight to speak with our students on Tuesday! This is a substance abuse prevention program that is nationally known. Once part of the Beyond Scared Straight TV show, he recognized that our youth needed something different and created Steered Straight. He is bringing with him several resources - one a book called Victoria's Voice Diary - for every student. Please let us know if you DO NOT want your student to receive this book. Beings this book is a real teenager's diary who lost her battle to addiction, it is real but has some strong language and content. This powerful book lets you dive deep into the mind of addiction and the path it leads to. By sharing Victoria’s Voice, the family and the foundation hope to prevent this from happening to other teens or their families. In addition, they provide a link to share with parents, teachers, staff, and the community. A link to the Parent video is below.        https://drive.google.com/file/d/1IPZ_pNYtueKXM4VV3rnP2Im7fi_iV-Q5/view

Dear YASD Families,As many of you know, Mrs. Hatfield recently suffered the tragic loss of her grandson. His services will be held on Tuesday, May 6 at 10 a.m. Many staff members have requested to attend, and as such, students may work from home that day. Aspire High School will remain open with one office staff, one teacher and one substitute on site for any students who wish to attend in person. Please call the office at 928-759-8126 if your student plans to attend in person so we can plan accordingly. Students working from home must complete at least 4.5 hours of schoolwork anytime during the day to avoid being marked absent and may call the school for assistance. Please note: the YCHS campus in PV will be closed. All in-person students should report to Aspire High School. Thank you for your understanding and support.

Good morning YASD students - ONCE AGAIN this is your next reminder in a long list of reminders that students who are causing disruptions in the classroom through excessive talking, back talking to teachers and staff, inappropriate behaviors, excessive sleeping and/or refusal to do school work WLL be sent home suspended from school. We are taking a zero tolerance stance on this. These disruptions and inappropriate behaviors MUST stop and will not be tolerated. Parents - some of you may be getting phone calls to pick up your students today or in the future if he or she displays these behaviors. Thank you for your support in the assistance of reminding your students of appropriate school behavior.
