The students at Heritage School had a challenging week, yet they handled it smoothly, according to Principal Heidi Udall. She praised the "10th and 11th graders for showing up early to take their test," which ensured that testing commenced on time. The school wants to maintain testing momentum and advises parents against scheduling appointments during testing periods.

The testing schedule for the coming week includes regular school hours. On Monday, March 31, and Tuesday, April 1, the focus is on the ACT Aspire for 9th grade students and AzSci for 11th grade students. For Wednesday, April 2, and Thursday, April 3, 7th and 8th graders with English first period must be in class by 7:45 AM to participate in the AASA writing test. The ACT Aspire and AzSci testing will also continue on these days.

Principal Udall extended an invitation to the community to participate in various school activities. "Spring sports are in full swing so be sure to come out and catch a game/match/event!" she stated. She also promoted the school’s musical production, "Lucky Stiff," noting it is a "funny and fast-paced adventure on stage," and expressed gratitude to Lori Towne and Kerwin Blau for their contributions.

In addition, there is an art show scheduled for Thursday, which will feature student art in the school lobby. Udall thanked Tamar Patchett and Jose Portilla for their involvement.

The principal ended her note by wishing everyone a good weekend, emphasizing the hard work of the students, and expressing hope that they recognize their preparation.
