**Important Reminder Regarding Access to ASDB Tucson Campus and Access to Copper Creek Campus**

At this time, the Copper Creek campus is not open to the public. Please do not visit the campus until ASDB officially announces a community Open House and provides further information.

We would also like to remind the community that the only individuals who should currently be on the ASDB campus are 12-month staff members and 10-month staff members who have received supervisor approval to be on site.

Thank you for your understanding, patience, and cooperation during this transition process.

ASDB welcomed Tucson Unified School District Board Member Val Romero to the ASDB Tucson Campus today. During the visit, Board Member Romero had the opportunity to interact with students, meet with our dedicated staff, and tour the campus.

We were proud to share more about our programs, community, and the incredible experiences happening every day at ASDB. We look forward to continuing and strengthening our long partnership with TUSD as we work together to support student success.

Thank you, Board Member Romero, for your time, enthusiasm, and commitment to excellent educational outcomes for all Arizona students!
