Marana High School Caring Interactions & Effective Practices Marana High School

Dear Parents/Guardians,I hope you had a wonderful weekend with your family. Thank you to everyone who came out to support our athletes for our Cirst home football game. It was a long

night but we had a group of fans and T-‐Unit students that stayed until the end through rain and shine! It was great to

see all that support. I appreciate the support you provide our school in all ways. Thank you for trusting us with your children’s hearts and minds. Have an amazing week.

ATHLETICSTiger Pride

First of all, TIGER PRIDE!

The Culture, Commitment and Competitiveness philosophy is strong and vibrant on our court, Cields, and courses. The weather put a damper on the X Country, swim, football and golf yet our athletes continue to pursue their goals by committing to practice and preparing to compete.

Our X Country athletes, Tim Hendrickson, Brandon Crockett & Preston HeClin won medals this weekend by placing in the Top 15 at the Desert Solstice Cross Country Invitational. Our lady Tigers took 4th place in the Silver bracket at the Flowing Wells Volleyball Invitational. At the Night Hawk Tournament our lady Tigers had an outstanding weekend showing their Tiger Pride with golf scores that were their personal bests!

Parents, fans and students who attended the cancelled JV football game on Thursday September 4th can exchange their ticket from that game at the gate for any other home football game before September 19th. If you have any questions please call the bookstore at 520-‐616-‐6420. Thank you for your support and Tiger Pride!

Honored to be the ADMs. Montiel Turner
