Laramie Letters 1.31.23
Letter from the Principal
Dear San Tan Families,
I hope you are having a great final week of January! As a reminder, we have our Learning Celebration this Friday. Details were sent out in a previous email and linked here. I am so excited for the students to be able to show off their learning to you all. The students are all abuzz with their excitement.
We have Valentine’s Day coming up here in a couple weeks, as a reminder we have a sugar free policy so no candy with your cards.
Have a wonderful week!
– Mrs. Sarah Laramie

Reenrollment is LIVE
This year, we have gone to completely ONLINE registration! No more paper packets!! While the phone app is convenient for most things – we recommend using a computer to complete re-enrollment. We highly recommend getting your application finished as soon as possible as we prioritize current families and we already have a substantial pool of new students wanting to enroll.
Please Log into your Parent Portal. Go to “More” and then “Online Registration.”
- Confirm existing students’ information
- Add any new siblings
If you are adding a sibling this year you will want to have some documents ready as you will be required to upload them before you are able to move forward in the application.
- Birth Certificate
- Proof of Residency
- Immunization Records (exemption form available in application)
- IEP/504/Gifted Score Documents (if applicable)
If you have questions or need assistance with re-enrollment and/or the parent portal please feel free to reach out to Christine Gray, cgray@santancs.com, or Sydney Burdeno at sburdeno@santancs.com.
