Errington Edition

 In Branding

Good Morning Recker Roadrunners,

I want to start off my very first Errington Edition by saying thank you for choosing San Tan! It is with extreme honor, that I continue a commitment to clear communication and collaboration each and every week through the Errington Edition. This is an exciting year for our school community both here at the Recker Campus as well as our new Power Campus. As I begin my ninth year here at San Tan Charter School, I can promise you all that we will continue to live by our Mission, Vision, and Values as we expand our school community. Our teachers will be trained in Love & Logic and our iLEAD (integrity, love, empathy, accountability and dedication) principles. Our administrative staff has been working hard all summer to plan for the 18-19 school year and remember why we and you choose San Tan each and every day.

I am thrilled to announce our Assistant Principal’s for the 2018-2019 school year. These ladies have been San Tan Roadrunners for some time now and thoroughly live and breathe San Tan’s Mission, Vision, and Values.

For Facebook users: The San Tan Charter School Family Connection page was created as a way for families to connect with other families, keep up to date about upcoming events and promotions, learn about passive giving opportunities, and keep up to date with the activities our FEC (Family Engagement Committees) are currently working on. Families will have the opportunity to communicate and connect through this page. For example, if you are in need of a carpool you can post on the Family Connection Page asking if anyone would be willing to carpool from your area. The school and FEC committees will be able to post about upcoming events or contests that could bring free money to the school. We look forward to having the STCS Family Connection Page be a positive and fun way for families to connect with one another.
