The 1st semester of the 2019-2020 school year is nearly complete and we have had a fantastic year so far. We have fully implemented the Zearn math program in all of our K-5 classrooms as well as the new Arizona Science Standards school-wide. We partnered with the Arizona Science Center and are piloting the STEM:IT curriculum program for the Paradise Valley School District. This is helping us move toward our goal of creating a world-class STEAM program at Wildfire Elementary School. In their general education classroom, all students from Pre-K to 6th-grade are engaging in the engineering design process and are their developing 21st-century skills.

We have had amazingly successful fundraisers such as the Light Our Fire Campaign and STEP IT UP! and are using the donations to purchase supplies and new learning resources/experiences for our students and teachers. We are looking forward to a great end to the calendar year and an even better 2nd semester.
