Tonight’s Math and Literacy Night POSTPONED! Due to electrical issues affecting the district, Math Literacy Night scheduled for TONIGHT has been POSTPONED. A new date will be announced as soon as arrangements are finalized! Thank you for your patience and understanding!

Dear Sacaton School District Families and Community, Due to electrical issues at the elementary school following last night’s severe storm, elementary students will receive instruction today in separate, designated classrooms at Sacaton Middle School. Teaching and site staff will be on-site to welcome students, guide them to the appropriate rooms, and maintain a safe and organized learning environment. We recognize the importance of maintaining consistent instruction and minimizing disruptions to student learning. Continuing the school day at an alternate location allows our students to stay engaged in their lessons, maintain their routines, and receive support from their teachers and school staff. School remains in session, and families should follow their regular morning schedules unless otherwise notified by the district. Please continue to monitor district communication for additional updates Thank you for your continued support!

SACATON TRANSPORTATION: Attention parents - we have a delayed Elementary bus due to the 587 being closed northbound the bus is having to reroute. This will affect those students in George Web, Gila Buttes and Snake town. Buses will probably be about 25 to 40 minutes behind schedule. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

SACATON TRANSPORTATION: Bus Delay - Gate 6 middle school bus is running about 20 minutes late due to mechanical issues. Please have students remain at their bus stop. A bus is on the way. Thank you!

Families picking up students should park in the designated area across the street. Students will use the crosswalk and may not walk through the bus-loading area.
