Mirage Elementary School

Snapshot for August

Happy Monday. Please check out our Grade Level Supply Wish Lists.

The 2022-2023 school year is almost here and we are pleased to announce that free and reduced meal applications are now available online! Please note two important changes from the past two years, the USDA: 1) Will no longer provide funding for free meals for all students and, 2) Is offering a one-time Summer P-EBT payment only to students who were both certified to receive free or reduced meals and were enrolled in a DVUSD school offering a NSLP program during May 2022. Please consider submitting a meal application now before the back to school rush begins and to best assure seamless meal support.
Submit today at: www.EZMealApp.com
If you have any questions, please call 623-445-5166

Mirage Families, the first day of school is right around the corner. Meet the Teacher Night will be August 1st, by last name A-L 5:00- 5:45 and M-Z will be 5:45- 6:30.

The first day for students is Wednesday, August 3. We serve breakfast in the classroom starting at 7:45 AM. Students are considered late if they arrive at 8:00 am and will receive a tardy.

Congratulations to Mrs. Dwight, Q4 Campus Star 🌟 Sponsored by Christine Melancon, Cetera.
