We had some exciting visitors at JB Sutton! The Arizona Diamondbacks and their mascot, Baxter, stopped by our school to surprise Ms. Lucero with a special reward. As part of their community outreach program, the D-backs presented her with a $1,000 check to purchase new books for our students. It was a fun and memorable day, filled with smiles, high-fives, and a whole lot of school spirit. Thank you to the D-backs for supporting our teachers and helping us build a love of reading at JB Sutton!

"Dear Parents and Families, we are excited to invite you to our upcoming Curriculum Night!

Good Morning Families,

Welcome back! We are now in our third week of school, and we want to sincerely thank everyone for your punctuality and patience with dismissal arrangements.

As a reminder, any students arriving at 8:00 AM or later must be signed in at the front office. These students will be marked tardy for the day. Please be aware that frequent tardies can accumulate and result in absences.

Being on time is essential not only to avoid interrupting the learning environment, but also to ensure students don’t fall behind academically.

Thank you, parents and guardians, for your continued support!
