Facial Mask

Strawberries naturally contain vitamin C, salicylic acid and alpha hydroxy acid- all of which help to exfoliate, moisturize, and brighten the skin.

Yogurt is rich in lactic acid, which also helps to nourish and exfoliate the skin.

Honey is a must, as it has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Great for your skin.

INGREDIENTS

3 large ripe strawberries

1 Tbsp plain whole milk yogurt

1 tsp raw honey

Instructions

Mash the strawberries until mushy, with a baby food consistency. Add the yogurt and honey, stir to combine.

Apply the mask to the face, and leave it on for 15 minutes before rinsing it off with warm water. This mask will keep in the refrigerator for up to a week in an air-tight container.

partnership with the Pima JTED and also our own Northwest Medical Center. Again, these efforts advance finding common ground, to support aligned growth of our economy, and also advance congruent workforce development. About eighteen (18) students are completing this inaugural medical assisting program this year.

This year, we were honored by Tucson Electric Power with their “Go Green” Award for intentional efforts to advance sustainability initiatives. We were just notified about our State safety grant initiative, which was approved and will not only support our successful School Resource Officer (SRO) programs at the high schools, but is allowing us to keep moving forward with action steps to expand the program to our middle school serving buildings. As another example, even through the pandemic, with volatility in enrollments, we have been able to responsibly provide our dedicated professional staff with compensation increases, including a 4% raise for the ‘23-’24 school year.

Our people and school programs continue to make Sahuarita Shine. One of our speech language pathologists, Dr. Sarah Dachtyl, received State recognition with the prestigious Sandra Turek Outstanding Leadership

Award from the Arizona Speech and Hearing Association (ArSHA). For the first time, the Walden Grove HS Academic Decathlon Team became our first qualifier for the Academic Decathlon Nationals! Our highly accomplished Navy JROTC program continued building on its successes, winning the Arizona John McCain Drill Meet and qualifying for Nationals in orienteering and marksmanship. Once again, an NJROTC program alumnus is graduating from one of our Nation’s Military Academies. Congratulations to Midshipman Carson Lopez (WGHS ‘18), who is graduating from the US Naval Academy this month, is being commissioned as an Ensign, and is starting his career as a Surface Warfare Officer. Over thirty (30) of our students were selected for the prestigious Southern Arizona Regional Honor Band. In career and technical education (CTE), our students qualified for Nationals in construction technology and culinary arts. Athletic teams from our high schools earned State Championships in wrestling, dance, and student council. Several other programs, including baseball, softball, and winter guard and percussion also earned State recognition.

As we look to the next year, and beyond, there is much to be excited about. Currently, we are reaching out through community conversations, staff presentations, and surveys to identify important, major facility needs in all schools and other facilities. For example, some of the emerging areas which have been identified thus far include additional preschool space, Central Cafeteria modifications, renewing athletic facilities, additional fine arts space, special education space, and technology infrastructure. We are in the process of evaluating the information received, with a tentative action plan to present these findings to the Governing Board and public over the summer, in anticipation of a possible bond project ballot measure in the Fall, specifically to address these identified needs to keep our schools safe, modern, efficient, and future ready to meet the community’s needs with excellence. And, we are confident that we can achieve this without raising our local school tax rates from current levels.

In summary, this year has brought us many fruits of success to celebrate, and the promise of a bright future. It is the direct result of the spirit of community which defines us and moves us in the right direction, that of being purposeful, positive, and committed to finding common ground and working together to overcome challenges and advance our noble purpose of “working as a team to help every student succeed.” And together, we will continue to make a difference!
