The Twin Peaks PTF made this school year truly special by creating memorable experiences for students, families, and staff. Through their dedication, creativity, and countless volunteer hours, the PTF helped strengthen the sense of community that makes Twin Peaks such a wonderful place to learn and grow. Their efforts brought families together, celebrated our students, and provided meaningful support for our teachers and staff throughout the year.

Twin Peaks K-8 students have much to celebrate! Throughout the school year, students demonstrated our school-wide expectations of being respectful, responsible, and ready to learn, earning an incredible 12,561 Positive Paws and 317 Pawsitive Office Referrals. These accomplishments reflect the commitment of our students to making positive choices each day and contributing to a welcoming, supportive learning environment.

Our students hard work and dedication were recognized at both the Southern Arizona Science and Engineering Fair (SARSEF) and the Arizona State Science Fair, where they earned numerous awards and special recognitions. We are incredibly proud of these outstanding young scientists and engineers for representing Twin Peaks with excellence.

Our annual Twin Peaks Science Fair was held in February and showcased the creativity, curiosity, and scientific thinking of students in grades 5–8. Participants designed and conducted science and engineering projects that demonstrated their problem-solving skills, innovation, and commitment to learning. We are proud of all of the students who participated and shared their hard work with judges, classmates, and the school community. Congratulations to our award winners
