Intramural Basketball Games start this week at the Joseph City Elementary School. Parents and family members may attend these games for your student only. We also request that you wear a mask while you are seated in the bleachers. If students are present to watch games they must be seated in the bleachers and not playing outside or in the hallways. Please cheer for your student and the other students playing. The purpose of the intramural league is to introduce basketball and the skills needed to play this sport. We also desire to teach teamwork to the students. Thank you for following these guidelines so that we can have a fun, safe basketball season. Schedules have been passed out to students. If you need a schedule, please contact Mrs. Fish at 928-288-3329.

See the message below that schools received yesterday. Update on Mask Requirement in K-12 Schools Dear School Leaders, We wanted to share information we received from the Arizona Department of Health Services today in light of Governor Ducey's executive order relaxing COVID-19 restrictions. AZDHS Emergency Measure 2020-04 is still in effect, requiring masks in all K-12 schools. Masking is one of the top mitigation strategies for safe in-person learning as recommended by the CDC. Masks must be worn on school campuses, on school buses and during school-associated activities by all students, faculty, staff, contractors, and visitors. Thank you, Arizona Department of Education

SSG Roberts from the Arizona Army National Guard came to the JH/HS yesterday to explain to juniors how to interpret their ASVAB scores. Thanks for your help SSG Roberts!

Some Joseph City students are participating in an after school life skills class where they have fun learning about cooking and preparing food. The school is still looking for adult helpers with this and other similar programs. If you or someone you know may be interested, the application can be found on the school's website as "Youth, Faith, and Family Specialist".
