STUDENT RECOGNITION Congratulations to Christie Hoeye, Marana High School student,

who was selected as 1 of 5 Military youth honored as Our Military

Kids of the Year awardees in Washington D.C. on September 8.

Our Military Kids is a nonprofit organization created to provide

support and recognition to military children of deployed National

Guard and Reserve service members, along with children of

Wounded and Fallen Warriors from all branches of service. The

grants awarded pay for fees associated with athletic, fine arts, and

tutoring programs. Our Military Kids’ grants keep military

children engaged in activities of their choosing, helping to relieve

the stress of separation from a parent by providing a positive

distraction, minimizing emotional destabilization, building self-

esteem, and enabling academic achievement. Christie received a

grant to continue playing softball, a sport in which she had

previously been coached by her father.

FIRST ANNUAL COMMUNITY THANK YOU BREAKFAST

On November 12th PTO, Marana Alumni, and Marana High

School Administration hosted a breakfast for our community

members who support MHS. Our culinary students, under the

guidance of Mr. King, cooked a delicious breakfast. Our

Chamber Signers, along with their teacher Mrs. Ross,

entertained us. It was a beautiful event and I would like to

sincerely thank our guests who attended the event and our

community for all of your support.
