Happy Paraprofessional Appreciation Day to our amazing support staff. Here at Isaac, our paraprofessionals not only help our students within the classroom but go above and beyond.

Today, we're making history with the City of Phoenix and our incredible partners, the Arizona Sustainability Alliance and V+P Nurseries, as we plant 80 trees at Morris K. Udall Middle School and Alta E. Butler Elementary School. This landmark event marks the first school tree planting funded by the American Rescue Plan Act through the Canopy for Kids Program in Arizona. A huge thank you to our volunteers and community for helping us turn this dream into reality. Together, we're not just planting trees; we're growing a greener, healthier future for our students and community. Let's make our schools a shade better, one tree at a time.

As our Superintendent Student Advisory Council (SSAC) students gear up for their end-of-the-year leadership sessions, we're thrilled to share the incredible progress on their Food Services Project. This year, our focus has been clear: to enrich our school lunches with more fresh foods and a wider variety of drinks. In our latest session, we had the invaluable opportunity to learn about USDA guidelines from our expert Consulting Food Services Team at SFE. Not only did they savor a delicious, fresh meal, but we also crafted vital recommendations to fuel our minds and bodies better. Thank you to Governing Board member Patricia Jimenez for joining us and to all the students who shared their insightful thoughts with the superintendent. They will finalize their presentation and recommendations next month as the conclusion of their project and leadership experience in SSAC.

We are grateful for community partners FedEx and nonprofit Operation Warm for providing new shoes, socks, and extra goodies to our Joseph Zito K-3 students. Students were also thrilled and excited to experience a FedEx truck and van tour.
