We hold screenings on the first Friday of the month for children ages three through five (who are not eligible for kindergarten) who may be at-risk for handicapping conditions or developmental delays in areas such as the following: gross motor coordination, fine motor coordination, vision, hearing, language development and articulation, concepts and memory, or social/emotional development. An appointment is necessary, so please call the Federal Programs Office at (502) 457.4001. If it is determined that your child is handicapped or developmentally delayed, we will provide preschool services to help maximize his or her educational experience.

It is very important that the parent or guardian notify the school as soon as possible if a student will be absent. Please state the type of illness when you call. If the school does not receive notification by 10:00 a.m., state law (AZ Revised Statutes 15-803) requires us to call the child's home to verify the absence.
If a student is late for class, he or she must report to the office for a pass to take to the classroom. Tardiness is a disruption to the classroom. If a student receives multiple unexcused tardiness, we will notify the parent/guardian, and it may be necessary for the student to make the time up during lunch, recess, passing period, or after school.
For the safety and protection of students, Tombstone Unified School District does not allow students to leave the school before our regular dismissal time without the parent first coming to the office to sign him or her out. Occasionally, and with the principal’s approval, a student may sign out early if we receive a note or telephone call from the parent. If the student returns before the end of the school day, he/she must sign back in at the office.

For all of our students’ safety, we require that all visitors report to the school office upon arrival. A school visitor is anyone who is not enrolled or working at our school's site. Visitors must sign in at the office before entering any of our school buildings or grounds.
We issue report cards four times a year—every 9-week period. We schedule parent-teacher conferences twice a year to discuss any special needs, your child's progress, etc. You may also request a conference at any time during the school year.
Yes. We encourage our students to take pride in their attire as it relates to the school setting.
