The fourth grade students celebrated reading the heart warming novel, "Because of Winn-Dixie" with a party. At the end of the book Opal and Gloria decide to celebrate the joy and happiness that friendship brings to our lives. Just like in the novel, the students had; egg salad sandwiches, peanut butter sandwiches, Otis’s pickles, Dump Punch, and lozenges.
Our committed KUSD staff and administration are actively working during the summer break to create even more engaging and interactive learning experiences for our students! 🍎📝 While our students enjoy their summer vacation, some of our staff members are diligently preparing for the upcoming school year by participating in Mindset Training!
We want to wish Mr. Arave a happy retirement! On Thursday afternoon we threw a surprise retirement party after school for Mr. Arave.
He was very surprised and he enjoyed seeing friends, family, co-workers, and former co-workers. Thank you Mr. Arave for 33 years of being an educator in different roles, with 24 of those years being here in Kingman at KUSD.
Last Thursday was Mr. Arave’s last full day of school. So we decided to duct tape him to the wall for all of lunch today, the kids were pretty excited to help us out. Mr. Arave was a good sport.
🎉 Last week was all about celebrating our amazing Special Education team during SPED Staff Appreciation Week! 🎉 We rolled out the red carpet for our incredible staff from ALL schools within our district with delicious treats, fun raffles, and some fabulous gifts.

📣Exciting News from Kingman Unified School District!
🎉We're thrilled to share that two of our incredible staff members are making big strides in their careers!
🌟A huge shoutout to Eric Najera from Hualapai Elementary School for being accepted into the SETTA program, and to Linda Panagopoulos at Kingman Middle School (KMS Bobcats) for her acceptance into the GETSET Tuition Assistance Program through the Arizona Department of Education.🌟
GETSET (General Education Teacher to Special Education Teacher) is an amazing program that offers tuition reimbursement for certified general educators ready to transition into special education. Meanwhile, SETTA (Special Education Teacher Tuition Assistance) supports paraprofessionals in gaining their special education teaching certification.
At KUSD, we’re all about “growing our own” educators, and we can’t wait to see the impact Eric and Linda will make in our schools! Way to go, Linda and Eric – we believe in you!
Yesterday morning at Hualapai Elementary School, they kicked off their Donuts with Dad (or that special someone!) event. 🍩 They had a fantastic turnout! The students love starting their day with delicious treats and quality time with those they love. The smiles on the students' faces said it all! 😊
🌟🌟We are so proud to spotlight and congratulate Mrs. Shelly Owen, a 2nd grade teacher at Hualapai Elementary School. She earned Kingman Rotary Club's Teacher of the Month for March!
Mrs. Owen stated, "I have been teaching for 33 years and my favorite thing about teaching is that every day feels new and different. Children have very kind hearts and a sense of humor. I really enjoy being with them, helping them learn and watching their successes!"
She added that she moved to Arizona 33 years ago with her husband and has 3 children along with 2 dogs and is a grandma to 3 granddogs, which she loves! ❤
Congrats Mrs. Owen and thank you for continuing to be passionate and committed to the staff and students within our district! We truly appreciate you! 🎉
🔎🪨🪨 Exploring Careers in Geology! 🪨🪨🔎
Students at Hualapai had an exciting opportunity to learn from independent geologist Michael Feinstein during Trades Career Exploration Day!
Mr. Feinstein brought in rock samples from across Mohave County, allowing students to examine them up close with a hand lens and take a sample home! They gained insight into what geologists do, why their work is important, and how their findings help manage resources.
A huge thank you to Mr. Feinstein for sharing your expertise and inspiring future geologists!
Back in October we participated in the Walk away from drugs event. Today Hualapai was recognized by the city of Kingman as having the highest number of students attend in the area. Our trophy will be on display in our lobby. Congratulations to our Mountaineers for committing to walking away from drugs. We are all so proud of you guys. Pictured is Mr. Arave, officials from the city, and our 5th graders.
