Cartwright School District Reaffirms Commitment to Safe, Inclusive Schools for All Students

We know there is fear and uncertainty in our community from rumors circulating on social media regarding ICE agents. Please know we remain fully committed to providing safe schools with staff that inspire all students to go places and do things that matter.

At the Cartwright School District, we are deeply committed to safeguarding the rights, safety, and well-being of all our students and their families. Through our Safe and Inclusive School Environments (SISE) Policy, we work to ensure that our schools remain safe spaces for learning, free from fear or discrimination based on immigration status, while adhering to Arizona Revised Statutes (ARS).

At Cartwright, we will always remain committed to protecting the rights of all those we serve. Please see below for some additional information that responds to some of the questions we are receiving:
The Cartwright School District and our campuses are safe zones for all students, which includes a safe and stable learning environment, regardless of citizenship status. Students have the constitutional right to attend school regardless of their or their family member(s)' immigration status.

Please continue to check our website for updated information. We will also continue communicating with our families when large-scale updates become available.

We value and stand with every student that we serve. Thank you for your trust, and please do not hesitate to contact your home campus with any questions.

We hope that everyone has prepared for the fall season, including all students across the district.

Acting Superintendent Dr. Alfredo Barrantes stopped by various school sites on Tuesday, including Peralta Elementary and Cartwright Elementary School. At Peralta, he joined parents during a Cafecito/Coffee Talk session where he heard about topics related to food services and student safety.

He later joined Principal Andrew Tippins at Cartwright and toured classrooms of different grade levels. He witnessed many amazing school personnel educating our students.

To our families, continue showing your support to our Lions and Cougars!
