We are proud of our talented and caring staff at Pima Unified School District. As parent/teacher communication is essential to your child's success, we invite you to contact your child's teacher by email or other messaging tools your teacher has made available.
If you missed orientation, please watch the slideshow embedded below.
Communication Through Bright Arrow:
Parents, please be aware that PUSD is now implementing an electronic form of communication with the parents called Bright Arrow. We will send an electronic message via cell phone (text), voice message, and/or email. In some cases, all of the above. This is a great way to communicate with the teachers and office staff. Please download the app, pictured above, and ensure your email and phone number are correct with the front office.
A Note From the Nurse
Please remember to keep your child home from school if they develop any of these signs of illness:
Coughing, with other signs of illness
Fever or chills
Sore throat or trouble swallowing
Muscle aches with headache
Vomiting
Diarrhea
Breathing trouble
Unusual spots or rashes
A child should be fever-free for 24 hours (without fever-reducing medicine) before returning to school. Keeping a sick child home helps prevent the spread of disease at school. Please help keep our school healthy.
If your child must use medication while at school, the parent/guardian must check in with the school nurse and complete the proper paperwork. All medications need to be in the original container. If it is a doctor-prescribed medication, the prescription label must be present.
If you have a student who has been prescribed an inhaler for asthma purposes or an epi-pen for allergies, the school nurse must have written documentation from the parent/guardian giving permission for the student to carry these types of medications with them. These are the only medications students are allowed to carry.
