Schools Reunite in New District Layout | Tucson News

Amphitheater Public Schools kicked off the year with a major shake-up—four elementary schools shut down, students redistributed across campuses. At Painted Sky, former Copper Creek kids found familiar faces, including teachers and even Principal Stephanie Hillig, turning the transition into a warm family reunion. The district’s goal? To foster essential skills like teamwork, problem-solving, and empathy while staying focused on college and career readiness. Here’s where everyone landed: Copper Creek students now at Painted Sky, Wilson K-8, and Harelson; Donaldson moved to Mesa Verde; Holaway to Rio Vista; and Nash split between Keeling and Walker. Parents are urged to be patient with traffic and drive slowly around school zones as everything settles in. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
