Through an Executive Order, schools will delay the start of in-person classes for the school year until August 17 or until further notice, however, online learning is permissible and encouraged. For all Pendergast students, school will begin on Wednesday, August 5, through online Distance Learning.
The Arizona Tax Credit Program allows each taxpayer to donate up to $200 for a single individual or a head of household per year to public schools and up to $400 if married and filing a joint tax return. That money can go directly to the public school of your choice, reducing your taxes by the amount donated.
We truly appreciate the volunteers that serve in a variety of capacities throughout the Pendergast Elementary School District. Whether in offices, classrooms, playgrounds or on field trips, volunteers enrich the educational experience for Pendergast students. Although working with students is a great responsibility, it is also highly rewarding.
