Weekly Updates 11/6/23

Dear Asante Families- 

Our students in grades 3-8 have completed their benchmark assessments in reading and math.  We are proud of how much they have accomplished in the first quarter and are looking forward to setting goals and working toward them in this second and beginning of the third quarter.   

We were also excited to get the news this last week that Asante was names an A school and scored in the top 20% of all schools in Arizona this last year.  We are excited to see how much our Rangers continue to grow!  

Here are the other important updates and information:  

• On November 9th, our students will be participating in a Color Run to get active, have a blast, and help raise money to support our school!! Students are encouraged to wear a white shirt and to bring a shirt to change into after! Click here to find your student's Color Run page for more information, then type in your student's first name: https://AsanteRuns.pledge-drive.net/.   We appreciate your support!  Unfortunately, due to numbers, parents will not be able to attend. Volunteers were taken at the PTO meeting. 
• The community is invited to view a brief presentation about the boundary change process, the committee's work, and next steps, followed by a Q&A session. We hope you can join us at 6:00p.m.  this Thursday at Asante Preparatory Academy, 23251 N 166th Dr., Surprise AZ 85387, for the meeting.  
• There is no school on Friday, November 10th in observance of Veterans Day.  Thank you to all who have served our country!
