Good morning to families of the class of 2023. It’s hard to believe that this Friday is our last day with seniors. Students will receive their tickets Friday afternoon at graduation rehearsal. Each graduate will receive up to ten (10) tickets for family and guests. Please let us know if you need more than 10 tickets and let us know if you do not need all 10 so we can assign those extra tickets to other families.

Additional tickets are not guaranteed. The venue has limited space. Every guest will require a ticket, including lap children. Guests without tickets will not be able to attend the ceremony. Finally, graduation info was emailed and mailed home last week. It is also posted on the parent info page on our school website at www.pxu.org/coding. Please call with any questions. Thank you!

Juniors check out this summer opportunity! Become college bound, focused, and prepared for senior year!

The Phoenix Coding Academy art show is presented by the senior class. There is quite a variety of artwork on display. The creativity and hardworking students sewed monsters, block printed imagery, made plaster masks, and painted people and landscapes on canvas. This is a diverse and fun collection of art from our students. We look forward to seeing you at the opening on Friday, April 21st from 6-9pm
