November 2025 Newsletter

Dear Mesa Arts Academy Community,

I would like to extend my warmest wishes to you and your families for a joyful Thanksgiving. In the upcoming weeks, I am sure many of you will be busy preparing for visits from family and friends. As we navigate this festive time, it is essential to consider how holiday distractions may affect our students. I kindly ask that you take a moment to help your child remain focused and engaged with their schoolwork while enjoying this special season.

I am also delighted to share some remarkable news: our school has once again been recognized as an “A” school by the Department of Education! This achievement is a testament to the support of our parents and community partners, to whom we extend our heartfelt gratitude for everything you do to contribute to MAA’s success. We are fortunate to have exceptional students and dedicated staff who strive each day to learn, teach, and engage. They are the reason we come to work each day.

As you celebrate the holidays, remember to cherish time with your family and create lasting memories. We would like to express our sincere appreciation to all the families, community partners, and staff for your unwavering support. We are especially thankful to the Mesa Police Department for our annual Thanksgiving Dinner and to Gilbert Christian High School for organizing a field day for our 3rd thru 5th graders. Your contributions are invaluable to our community at MAA.

With deepest appreciation,
Joyce Oyer
