What a beautiful moment at last weeks football game. Esteban Ortiz’ older brother, Isaias Ortiz, surprised him on the field at the start of the game. Isaias was on a short leave from the Navy and wanted nothing more than to cheer on his number one Jaguar! It was an emotional moment for all there. There wasn’t that dry eye in the stadium. 

Check out the beautiful story at even made a national news.

❤️💙 UofA College Fair 💙❤️

Today, our Desert View seniors had the opportunity to participate in the University of Arizona College Fair. Students connected with representatives from different colleges across the UofA, explored programs and opportunities, asked questions, and most importantly, started the application process!

For many of our Jaguars, today was another step toward imagining what comes after graduation and turning those plans into action. And we are JUST getting started! There is so much more to come for the Class of 2027!

Jaguars today… future Wildcats tomorrow!
