Summer Fire Alarm Testing

The district will be making lots of noise this summer... literally. In compliance with the State Fire Marshal's order, the district will be testing fire alarm systems in all offices and schools during June, July, and August. These comprehensive tests include testing all fire alarm horns inside and outside of all district buildings. The audible alarms will sound for an extended period of time during these tests. Check the link below to see when the school near you will be tested.

MESA National Engineering Design Competition

MESA teams from across the district recently came together at West High School to compete in the district-level competition for the MESA USA National Engineering Design Competition. Students designed and built windmill devices that would transfer energy from a wind source to perform desired tasks. In addition students created academic displays, gave oral presentations, and wrote technical papers based on the investigation, experimentation, design, testing, and experiences related to their devices.
