District Announcements
Heat Index Report
| Scottsdale Unified School District is committed to protecting the health and safety of our students and staff while providing and encouraging appropriate physical activities and opportunities during the school day. While it is important for children to exercise, we are mindful of the outside temperature and heat index. There are times that students’ activities may be altered due to the weather. We monitor daily the temperature, heat index, and air quality as we determine the level of outdoor activity for our students. If you have any questions, please contact your school nurse. |

Superintendent Dr. Gary T. Catalani's September Letter
School has been in session for a few weeks at Scottsdale Unified School District. During the first few days of school, District administrators were on campuses to help assist principals with morning arrival and afternoon dismissal of our students. Although there were some initial challenges, I am proud of how staff, students and parents worked together to get the 2010-11 school year off to a good start. see September Letter

Olivia's Walk
On Saturday, May 15, a group of Hohokam staff, students, and parents participated in the 4th Annual Olivia’s Walk. Olivia Hoffman is a Hohokam 2nd grade homebound student who was diagnosed with Metachromatic Leukodystrophy (MLD) at the age of 2. The group completed a 5K Walk around Tempe Town Lake to raise funds for MLD and Hohokam 2nd graders made a large banner in support of Olivia and her family.
Love of Reading
As a part of Love to Read month at Hohokam we invited families to join us for a barbecue and a classroom reading activity. Mrs. Kersten's class enjoyed a family read time together outside. Good food + good books = good times!
One Great School – One Great Book
May is Love to Read month at Hohokam. As part of our celebration of reading, the entire school is reading the Newberry Honor book, Because of Winn Dixie. The students listened attentively at our kick-off assembly as Chapter One was read. Share the adventures of Winn Dixie with your child. Enjoy the journey.
Generous Book Donation
Hohokam Preschool-4th grade students were the lucky recipients of a book to call their own due to a generous donation of 391 books by the American Association of University Women. This dedicated group of women collect books all year long in order to make this happen. Because of their generosity and caring, children will be enjoying a new book with their family this evening! Hohokam thanks you for your support.
