Actor & Film Maker Jose Yenque came to visit Pueblo today to share some of his stories and experiences in Hollywood. Students participated in a Q & A with Jose and he demonstrated how actors participate in ‘theater games’ with one of our Warriors.
Jose also screened Wednesday Afternoon, an award winning short film with a powerful message he starred in.
Thank you to the Arizona International Film Festival for bringing Jose to Pueblo!
Poet Logan Phillips visited Pueblo to share some of his poems and invite students to an upcoming Poetry Slam. He also shared some of his recent experiences living in Mexico and the poems inspired from his stay there. He had the crowd of about 100 students laughing with his repertoire.
Here’s a poem about Dinosaurs:
Logan encouraged Pueblo students to participate in an upcoming workshop sponsored by Nuestra Voz. Several students expressed their interest in poetry and asked various questions.
We want to thank Logan for taking the time to visit our school and all the kind words he had to say about Pueblo. We will work on forming our Poetry Slam Warrior Team! If you are interested, visit Mrs. Rusk in Room 212 for more information.
The City of Tucson fiber optic line went online today at Pueblo. This upgrade will improve our network speed throughout the school. The project was started in April of 2010 with the digging and installation of the 12 strand fiber cable.
The fiber optic line will boost our internet speeds. Pueblo will be able to download instructional materials in the classroom & our labs much faster. If you’ve surfed the web at school recently, you should notice a much welcomed improvement.
We want to thank TUSD and anyone involved in this project for this huge upgrade.

Pueblo’s football & practice fields will be getting new grass. A state of the art sprinkler system covering both fields to be compatible with reclaimed water are also being installed. The project officially starts today and will be completed in the Spring of 2011.
Southwest Enviroscapes Inc. started digging for soil samples to determine what type of fertilizer will be used on new field. Heavy machinery will be used to scrape the old grass to make room for the new one.
Follow the progress of the construction on our photo gallery

The foreman that will be overseeing the project is Reyes Contreras, a Pueblo graduate from the class of 1979.
Our athletes will sure welcome the new grass on both fields. Football field will be done first to be ready for track season & graduation. The practice fields will be done after the spring sports season.
