and Redfield Elementary School attend this middle school. The school recently acquired
the of Scottsdale public library’s former facility to expand its campus and increase
its ability to serve their students.

2008-09 school year, their soccer and baseball teams were city champions. Their
band and choral programs also attended California’s invitational Forum Festival,

very active and allows an opportunity to plan school and local events.
