It’s an Eagle Thing

Welcome to the Sonoita Elementary School District website. We’re honored to offer a unique educational experience at our small, K–8 school in Elgin, Arizona. In our six elementary classrooms and four middle-school classrooms, learning and fun go hand in hand. Elgin students have access to the latest in instructional technology, including iPads, laptops, interactive whiteboards, and more. We also have a STEAM lab with a 3-D printer and robots and a media center with a green screen and virtual reality glasses. In addition to unique academic opportunities, we offer a fun PE program and interscholastic sports. At our school, you will also find dedicated educators who are committed to building supportive relationships with every one of our students.

Message From Mr. Erickson

Dear Families,

As we enter the final stretch of the school year, I want to take a moment to thank you for your continued support and partnership. With just three weeks remaining, it’s more important than ever to stay focused and finish strong!

This is a time when students can reflect on all they’ve accomplished and give their best effort to end the year on a high note. Please help us encourage your child to:

  • Attend school every day unless they are ill.
  • Stay engaged in learning and complete all assignments.
  • Be kind, respectful, and supportive of classmates and staff.

We know the end of the year can be busy and exciting, but it’s also an opportunity to reinforce responsibility, commitment, and pride in a job well done.

On a different note, we are excited to announce a new partnership with Cartwheel, a mental health provider that offers counseling services for students, both during the school year and throughout the summer. This partnership gives families increased access to professional support when students need it most. Please see the flyer in this newsletter, and feel free to reach out to me if you’d like to learn more.

Thank you again for being an essential part of our school community. Let’s make these last few weeks meaningful and memorable!

Sincerely,

Daniel R. Erickson

Daniel R. Erickson
