We're proud to celebrate Bryant, our Lead Mechanic, on earning the Arizona DPS Trooper Medallion for achieving a 100% score on his DPS inspection two years in a row! 🚌🏅

Alongside fellow mechanics Patrick & Joseph, Bryant represents the strong work ethic that drives our transportation team each day. Their dedication, care, and consistency help ensure our buses are ready to transport students safely to and from school.

The school year is in full swing, and our students are settling into their classrooms and getting down to work. There's something special about seeing that moment when a student is completely focused on the amazing things they're learning.

We are so proud of Angelica Garcia, academic coach at Westwood Elementary School, for being named a 2025–26 Milken Educator and the only educator in Arizona to receive this honor this year. During a schoolwide celebration, she was recognized with this prestigious award and a $25,000 cash prize, presented by Dr. Joshua Barnett from the National Institute for Excellence in Teaching, with Arizona Superintendent Tom Horne in attendance.

Ms. Garcia’s dedication to students, teachers, and her school community shines every day. Her leadership, expertise, and heart make a lasting impact, and we are thrilled to celebrate her incredible accomplishment as part of the Alhambra family.

Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs and District 4 City Councilwoman Laura Pastor visited Westwood Elementary School today to celebrate the holiday season with our students and families. They spent time greeting students and joining families during the holiday meal. Their presence made the day extra special, and we are grateful for the time they dedicated to our community.
