Good Afternoon, Students and Families,

We hope this message finds you safe and healthy. We wanted to provide you with a brief update for beginning school at Metro.

Earlier today, the Governor met with educational leaders, and the Arizona Department of Education also provided schools with an overview of guidelines. We are still expecting further guidance from the State as we finalize our plans.

Although we had planned on communicating full details today, we are incorporating today’s recent updates from the State into our plans.

We look forward to providing you with a full update tomorrow.

Thank you for your support.

Respectfully,

Metropolitan Arts Institute Administration

Dear Metro Arts Parents and Guardians,

Governor Ducey issued an order on Monday directing state residents to stay at home until the end of April, following the lead of several other governors as health officials try to stop the spread of coronavirus.

Along with Governor Ducey, keeping Arizonans safe and healthy as we slow the spread of COVID-19 remains our top priority. In order to keep our campus, staff, and students as safe as possible, the last day to check out a Chromebook will be this Wednesday, April 1st, by 12 pm.

Thank you for your continued support.

Kind regards,
Metropolitan Arts Administration
