Striving for Excellence at Alhambra is a commitment we all share, students, families, and staff alike. It means pushing beyond expectations, taking pride in our work, and working together to create the best opportunities for success. Whether in the classroom, at home, or throughout our community, excellence is what drives us forward and ensures every learner has the chance to thrive.
Last week, we honored more than 50 students who earned perfect scores on the AASA (Arizona’s Academic Standards Assessment) at our Governing Board meeting! Their achievements showcase their hard work, dedication, and the spirit of excellence that shines at Alhambra. We couldn’t be prouder!
School safety begins before the bell. A big thank you to our dedicated staff for helping students and families cross busy streets safely with care, attention, and kindness.
