After two days of voting at the polling place in the auditorium from 2:30-6:00 p.m. on Thursday and Friday, only 300 votes were cast. Administration and Student Council have decided to allow additional time to vote during both lunches on Thursday, March 4 and Friday, March 5.
Students must have their school ID to vote during that time so Student Council can ensure they are actually students at Pueblo and that they do not vote twice.

The AACC presented their annual Black History Month Assembly today in the auditorium. With this assembly the club promotes Black history and culture by organizing performances & readings.

Thank you to Tucson High Step Group for coming:
See you next year!
Student Council is moving forward with a final vote for our mascot.
Just to be clear, we will remain the Pueblo Warriors. We are voting for a mascot to represent us at sporting events and other school functions. For example, the Phoenix Suns have a Gorilla and the Arizona Diamondbacks have a Bobcat as mascots at their sporting events. Neither of their mascots have anything in common with their official team names. They are just cool! That’s what Student Council is trying to accomplish.
The final choices chosen by the students are:
The voting will take place in the Pueblo Auditorium lobby on Thursday, February 18 and Friday, February 19 from 2:30-6:00 p.m. Teachers, coaches, alumni, staff members and students can vote once.
Student Council appreciates your support for what they feel simulates a real election. Make your vote count!

Letter From Mrs. Dienz to Pueblo Families:
Dear Pueblo Families,
I am writing to share some news about myself and about Pueblo. On Tuesday, February 9, I was named as the new Director of High Schools for Tucson Unified School District. I am very excited about this new opportunity to work, not only with Pueblo, but with all of our other TUSD high schools. But, I am also very sad to leave Pueblo and I want all of you to know how much I have loved working with all of you and your wonderful children.
Just to fill you in on the past few days, on Wednesday I announced my appointment to the director position to our faculty and staff, and then to your children on Thursday, and I am again speaking to them via our television station today. Your children’s response to my announcement has been overwhelming. They have shown me such great support and affection and have brought me to tears many times in the last couple of days.
Beginning on February 15, Mr. Michael Beck, Assistant Principal for Security and Student Services, will be my designee until the arrival of the interim principal, Dr. Lorraine Richardson. Dr. Richardson will begin on February 22nd. Some of you may be familiar with Dr. Richardson as she was principal of Pueblo for 8 years, retiring from our school in 2002.
As I leave Pueblo, I know I leave your children in good hands. Our faculty and staff care deeply for your children and I know they will carry on in their work to lead your children to even greater success. I will return for the graduation of the Class of 2010 and will take great joy with you, as we watch them cross the stage to receive their diploma.
Thank you for all you have done to support your children and Pueblo!
Sincerely,
Patricia J. Dienz
The CTE program has opened a store that will serve the student body with school supplies, spirit items & healthy snacks. They will also sell school shirts and other items designed and made by our very own Graphic Arts Department.
The store will be called Pat’s Place in honor of Patricia Dienz, who is leaving Pueblo after being named Director of High Schools in TUSD.
Many students attended the ribbon cutting ceremony this morning. Patricia was in tears as she told the students how grateful she was for this honor.
Pat’s Place is a work in progress and has been curriculum based since the very beginning. The Business students created a business plan/proposal which was submitted to administration. In order for a student to work in the store they will need to fill out a job application and go through an interview process.
The store will be open from 7:15 a.m. – 2:45 p.m. and it’s located between rooms 172 & 173. Food items will not be sold during lunch periods.
We have some exciting news! As part of a joint project with TUSD & Adjacent Ways, Pueblo has a unique opportunity to upgrade our marquee. Our current marquee would be replaced with a proposed re-alignment of our entry way to Pueblo scheduled for this summer. We will post more information on that project as it becomes available.
That project budgeted $22,000 to move our current marquee from its current location. Instead of using that funding to move our old marquee, Pueblo would need to raise a minimum of $14,000 by March 5th, 2010 to replace it with a more modern one. The Pueblo student body is very excited and determined to make this happen!
