Dear TDS 1st- 6th Grade Families,
This week and next week- All 1st- 6th grade general education classroom teachers will begin sending home student devices (tablets) pending a signed device contract.
Those students who are still pending a signed contract will bring home a copy of the contract for parent signature. Student will begin bringing home device the following day. Any student who has an outstanding fee due to missing or damaged tablet from SY 2020/2021 can pay fees in the TDS office.
Currently our ASPIRE (Mrs. Zaragoza), TRIUMPH (Mrs. De La Herran), and THRIVE Ms. Bratcher), and our Preschool (Mrs. Flores) will NOT be sending home devices at this time.
Due to limited equipment, only the device will be sent home at this time. Charging cables and squares will remain at school for student use during the day.
We are also sending home updated District COVID waivers. We ask that parents please review, sign, and return to your child’s teacher.
If you have any questions, please fee free to give our front office a call at (928) 341-6400.


Tierra del Sol Open House will be held this Friday, July 30 starting at 5:30 to 7:00PM. Come and meet your child's teacher and visit their classroom!
We will provide important information and distribute dismissal forms/cards to support end of day procedures to help accelerate long wait times that are typical of the first days of school.
Swing by between these times on Friday for 40minute rotations. Your child should be receiving a Welcome Back Postcard in the mail and/or we will also have updated class rosters posted outside the building to help locate your child's teacher/room.
(For safety purposes, Parents will have access to the building during this evening event, but we will be limiting access to Students- Only during our school days, including the first day of school.) Thank you in advance for attending.
Welcome 2021-2022 Sun Dragons- see you Friday!
