Each staff member is always building positive relationships with students and each student supports their fellow peers to build a more positive and growing academic mindset! On top of that, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">being within a walking distance from a college campus and taking tuition-free university courses directly from ASU is such an amazing and unique opportunity<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that you can rarely find at a high school.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Advocating for the future of ASU Prep<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/phoenix-high-school\/fillmore\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">current lease situation<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> at the downtown ASU Prep campus has caused concern for its students and families, but Mays penned a letter to the Phoenix Elementary School District asking them to reconsider canceling Prep\u2019s lease. In her letter, she proved how much she cares about her school community and its impact on her. She wrote:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dear Phoenix Elementary School District Board,<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I\u2019m a student at ASU Preparatory Academy Downtown Phoenix and I\u2019m writing to express how much this campus means to me and the hundreds of others who call it home. As a member of the student council, I can say that<\/span><\/i><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> ASU Prep is more than just a place to learn\u2014it\u2019s a community that fosters lifelong memories and personal growth.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since joining ASU Prep, I\u2019ve had opportunities to develop leadership skills through student government, become a Chief Science Officer and even represent Arizona at the STEM Fest in Washington, DC. <\/span><\/i><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a first-generation college student, I\u2019m set to graduate as a junior with 60 college credits. These experiences go beyond academics\u2014they help build the bonds of friendship, leadership and teamwork that define our campus.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But now, this future is at risk. Without the continuation of our lease, future generations won\u2019t be able to experience the same sense of belonging and personal growth we\u2019ve had here. The walls of this building represent more than shelter; they are the foundation of our story and community.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We ask that you consider extending the lease so future students, families and staff can continue to make this place their second home. We deeply appreciate your time and hope you will consider the many voices of this community in your decision.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Respectfully,<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mays A.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mays said, \u201cThe school\u2019s situation with the lease is definitely heartbreaking. It would be very disappointing knowing that after the class of 2026, ASU Prep downtown won\u2019t be the same anymore. As a soon-to-be first-generation college student, ASU Prep opened up many doors for me, with the biggest being graduating my junior year of high school and having 60 college credits completed by the time I\u2019m done!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-160937 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mays-alqasemy-gaining-college-credit.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 639px) 98vw, (max-width: 1199px) 64vw, 770px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mays-alqasemy-gaining-college-credit.jpg 1540w, https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mays-alqasemy-gaining-college-credit-300x190.jpg 300w, https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mays-alqasemy-gaining-college-credit-1024x648.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mays-alqasemy-gaining-college-credit-768x486.jpg 768w, https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mays-alqasemy-gaining-college-credit-1536x971.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mays-alqasemy-gaining-college-credit-640x405.jpg 640w, https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mays-alqasemy-gaining-college-credit-1200x759.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Mays Alqasemy dissecting a frog\" width=\"1540\" height=\"974\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Learning leadership, STEM and sustainability<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Midway through her sophomore year, Mays learned that ASU Prep Phoenix had decided to partner with the Chief Science Officer (CSO) program and selected a few students to represent the branch at her school.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI, along with several other students, was fortunate enough to be one of the first CSOs on campus,\u201d Mays said. \u201cNow, as a second-year CSO and a first-year member of the Arizona Leadership Council, I continue to grow through new experiences.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In early January of this year, Mays received an exciting invitation from the CSO AZ program manager to attend the 2025 STEM Fest in Washington, D.C. This opportunity not only allows Mays to represent the Arizona chapter but also to meet with representatives from other states.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cDuring our first year as CSOs our Action Plan, which is a way for students to advocate for STEM and STEAM education in their communities, was to form an anatomy club,\u201d Mays shared. \u201cMany students signed up and each meeting included a presentation followed by interactive projects and worksheets about the different body systems. We even wrapped up the school year with a frog lab dissection.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This year, however, the group is taking a different approach for their Action Plan. The CSOs are organizing \u201cSTEM-onstrations\u201d for elementary school students, sparking their interest in STEM through hands-on demonstrations. Additionally, as a Southwest Sustainability Innovation Engine (SWSIE) Ambassador, Mays is required to have a sustainability related Action Plan as well. As part of this, they are launching a campus-wide recycling program to benefit all ASU Prep Phoenix students and the community.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mays noted, \u201cWhile this project will require significant effort\u2014educating students on proper recycling practices and ensuring there are enough recycling bins\u2014we have a dedicated group of students committed to making it happen!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mays\u2019 experiences as a leader and advocate for STEM reflect the broader vision of ASU Prep. The dedication to STEM education extends far beyond individual programs like CSO. Recognized for its efforts in advancing science, technology, engineering and mathematics, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/news\/asu-prep-shines-in-the-arizona-stem-acceleration-project-awarded-top-honors\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ASU Prep recently received top honors<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in the Arizona STEM Acceleration Project (ASAP). This accomplishment underscores the school\u2019s commitment to fostering innovation, science-driven learning and opportunities for all its students.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Creating a path worthy of inspiring<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Outside of school, Mays enjoys sketching, drawing and photography but her favorite hobby is hiking. She shared, \u201cI love the creativity involved in the artistic side of things, as it\u2019s a calm and soothing way to get my mind working without focusing on anything too academically heavy. Hiking, on the other hand, is by far the best way to stay active while also connecting with nature in a calm and peaceful way.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As an early graduate, Mays has had to overcome many challenges in her education journey, most notably the pandemic. She was in middle school when the world shut down and when it reopened she not only had to transition back to being in school\u2013she was also making the transition from middle school to high school. But Mays persevered.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cEveryone has these unique setbacks that I like to see as a learning experience,\u201d she shared. \u201cI not only improved my public speaking skills but also worked and communicated with so many people I would never think I would ever work with.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Part of that dedication to self-improvement may have been older sister syndrome. Mays has a younger sister and two younger brothers who look up to her. \u201cEvery day I do the best I can to make sure that all my actions and work are not only benefiting me but them too!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mays added, \u201cThis also reminds me of a recent six-word memoir assignment. The one I had written says: \u2018Creating a path worthy of inspiring\u2019 and with that I don\u2019t just mean my siblings but also my friends and everyone else around me in my community! It makes me very proud knowing that one simple action I did helped make a positive impact on someone else\u2019s life.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Looking toward the future<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thanks to ASU Prep\u2019s concurrent enrollment offerings where high school students can take college classes from Arizona State University at no cost to them or their families, after graduation Mays will only need two more years at ASU to complete her bachelors in Medical Studies. \u201cMy goal is to attend medical school,\u201d she said. The ASU School of Medicine and Advanced Medical Engineering is expected to open in the fall of 2026\u2013just in time for Mays.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI have always been interested in pursuing a career as a pediatric gastroenterologist,\u201d she shared. \u201cDespite gastroenterology being a specialty of its own, it still is such a wide field that has so many subspecialties that are so different, yet related, all at the same time! What excites me most about this is the fact that I will be able to make a lasting impact on the lives of many children and their families.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Recognizing supportive staff and teachers<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As she prepares to graduate as a high school junior who will start next year as a college junior, Mays is reminiscing about her time and appreciation for the people of Prep.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThere are a few teachers and staff members that I would definitely like to give a huge shout out to for being amazing,\u201d Mays remarked, acknowledging her teachers, Mrs. Baskerville, Mr. Talarico and Mrs. Johnson. \u201cThey really do show how much they care about the school and students in all their actions and inspire many students, including myself, to always set higher goals and standards and encourage us to think innovatively too!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mays also complimented Mr. Melendez as \u201csomeone who truly pushes students to achieve higher than their standards. Everyone who ever took his class can indeed confirm that the high expectations he has, structures students to be bright minded and disciplined individuals.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mays continued, \u201cA few staff members that I greatly appreciate include Ms. Serina (high school academic counselor), Ms. Munoz (assistant principal) and Ms. Higginbotham (principal). These staff members have always gone above and beyond to make sure school isn\u2019t just books and reading but that it\u2019s more engaging and hands-on, where you learn the same content a book will teach you but in a more interactive and mind challenging way.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mays also greatly appreciates Officer Mariscal, the school resource officer, noting, \u201cHe not only ensures that we have a safe learning environment but is always friendly, approachable and builds strong relationships with students, creating a welcoming atmosphere.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-160939 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/school-safety-bullying-and-mental-health-awareness-assembly.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 639px) 98vw, (max-width: 1199px) 64vw, 770px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/school-safety-bullying-and-mental-health-awareness-assembly.jpg 1540w, https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/school-safety-bullying-and-mental-health-awareness-assembly-300x190.jpg 300w, https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/school-safety-bullying-and-mental-health-awareness-assembly-1024x648.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/school-safety-bullying-and-mental-health-awareness-assembly-768x486.jpg 768w, https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/school-safety-bullying-and-mental-health-awareness-assembly-1536x971.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/school-safety-bullying-and-mental-health-awareness-assembly-640x405.jpg 640w, https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/school-safety-bullying-and-mental-health-awareness-assembly-1200x759.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"School Safety, Bullying, &amp; Mental Health Awareness assembly\" width=\"1540\" height=\"974\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Thankful for the memories<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Looking back on her time at Prep, Mays has made countless memories during her time at ASU Prep and each one of them is very meaningful in its own way.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhen our campus found out we were potentially losing this very building, junior and senior students along with staff and families united to put together a peaceful demonstration,\u201d she explained. \u201cWe each had a different unique poster that represents our thoughts, feelings and roles here as ASU Prep students. It was a learning experience for many of us and alongside that we were young leaders advocating for our voices to be heard.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mays also looks back positively at her time in Student Government, noting she never realized she and her STUGO peers would capture so many meaningful memories. She\u2019s proud of STUGO for putting together not only spirit-filled events, but meaningful lessons too. Mays enjoys knowing that the pep rallies and spirit days they created brought long-lasting memories to students throughout campus and that the other informative assemblies they put together interactively prepared students for the real world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cOther than the academic side of things, my friends are what made high school such a memorable journey,\u201d she remarked. \u201cThe countless assignments we worked together on, the conversations we had during lunch and the after-school activities that we\u2019ve done\u2013all were productive but filled with laughter.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Leading the Way<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mays Alqasemy\u2019s journey at ASU Prep Phoenix showcases the transformative power of a supportive and innovative educational environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unlike traditional high school dual enrollment opportunities or advanced placement programs, ASU Prep offers learners the unique chance to take concurrent university courses at ASU while earning their high school diploma.

Family Choice Day, a flexible, hybrid scheduling option available to students enrolled at our Phoenix, South Phoenix, Pilgrim Rest, and Polytechnic campuses in Arizona. This innovative program allows families to choose how and where their children learn on Fridays, creating a more dynamic and relevant educational experience. Families can adjust their enrollment choices quarterly, ensuring the program aligns with their evolving needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Flexible learning options<\/h2>\n<h3><b>In-person learning<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Students have the option to attend half-day in-person classes at an ASU Prep campus or engage in special in-person programming at an ASU campus. On-campus offerings include academic intervention, enrichment programs, special field trips, and on-site internships, all designed to provide hands-on, enriching experiences that support learners\u2019 growth.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>At-home learning<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For those who prefer a home-based learning environment, students can complete a \u201cFriday Playlist\u201d that includes both online learning and offline\u00a0 learning opportunities. Options include family field trips, out-of-school enrichment programs, internships at approved sites, digital electives, coursework\u00a0 \u201cmust-dos,\u201d as well \u201cmay-do\u201d suggestions, such as journaling.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>The background of Family Choice Day<\/h2>\n<p>The concept of a flexible fifth day originated at our ASU Prep Casa Grande campus, where a four-day school week has been in place for many years. The hybrid program allowed an extra day for students to engage in jobs, internships, and academic support activities. The success of this model was mirrored at the South Phoenix high school campus last year, leading to the decision to expand the program across more campuses.<\/p>\n<p>Surveys of families and teachers highlighted a strong preference for a flexible Friday, enabling the program to align with family needs while maintaining academic rigor. This flexibility has proved beneficial, reducing burnout and increasing student engagement and success.<\/p>\n<h2>The benefits of Family Choice Day<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Megan Hanley, Executive Director of School Design, notes, \u201cFamily Choice Day gives families the choice and flexibility for what works best for them.\u201d This could mean offering students a chance to recharge and engage in activities that spark their interests, providing valuable family time, or enabling them to pursue work opportunities and explore new passions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The hybrid learning model of Family Choice Day offers numerous advantages, including:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Family flexibility: Families can tailor their student\u2019s learning experience to best suit their needs, whether it\u2019s a day of fun learning at school or a relaxed learning day at home.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Student engagement: By providing a break from the traditional school week, students remain excited and engaged, both academically and in non-academic activities.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Personal growth: Students are encouraged to explore interests outside the standard curriculum, fostering creativity and personal development.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Staff collaboration: Teachers have the opportunity to lead classes in areas they are passionate about, enhancing the educational experience for both students and educators.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Real-world preparation: Students become familiar with blended learning environments found in college classes and modern workplaces.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Unique offerings across campuses<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt\u2019s going so well,\u201d shares Hanley. \u201cEach school site is offering such a unique program. Classes are being led by all kinds of staff members, including our School Resource Officer at Downtown Phoenix, as well as great community partners.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some of the unique programs and activities offered at each campus:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ASU Prep Polytechnic STEM Academy: Drones, robotics, pi\u00f1ata-making and other crafts.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ASU Prep Polytechnic High School: Collaborations with ASU on robotics, cooking classes and more.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ASU Prep Pilgrim Rest: Fashion program collaborations and leadership coding initiatives.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ASU Prep Downtown Phoenix: Mindfulness sessions, fitness programs and poetic collaborations.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ASU Prep South Phoenix: Virtual reality coding, soccer skills development and aquarium projects.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>A community effort<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe are so appreciative of our entire staff throughout the Network,\u201d says Hanley. \u201cWorking through all of the processes and changes is only possible if our staff see the possibilities, understand the goal, and exhibit perseverance through change. We are also so grateful to our families who have handled the change so well and are excited about the possibilities both at home and at school.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Family Choice Day is more than just a schedule change\u2014it\u2019s a gateway to unlimited possibilities in learning and personal growth.

our Transformational Teacher Leader (TTL) program\u2014a groundbreaking initiative designed to empower educators to excel both inside and outside the classroom.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This unique role allows teachers to maintain their passion for teaching while stepping into leadership positions, creating a dynamic environment of growth and innovation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>What is a Transformational Teacher Leader?<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Transformational Teacher Leaders at ASU Prep personify the school\u2019s mission and values, serving as educational innovators who lead by example. They make data-driven decisions, implement innovative techniques, and promote collaboration within the school. As both teachers and leaders, TTLs inspire peers and drive educational progress. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this hybrid role, TTLs have the opportunity to remain actively engaged in the classroom while also taking on responsibilities that allow them to influence instructional practices on their campuses. This means that our most dedicated teachers, who thrive on classroom interaction but seek greater responsibility, can have the best of both worlds.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Meet our Transformational Teacher Leaders<\/h2>\n<h3><strong>Ally Glow<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ms. Glow, an ASU alumna, has taught every level of high school English, including AP Seminar, Gifted Seminar, and ASU\u2019s Poetry in America. She also has significantly contributed to curriculum development, highlighting her dedication and expertise in education.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Her passion for teaching Shakespeare shines through, and she is eager to transition into a leadership role without losing her connection with students. For Glow, the TTL role is a dream come true, offering her the chance to stay \u201chip with the times\u201d while influencing education on a broader scale.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Agueda Nava<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ms. Nava is an incredibly well-rounded educator, holding a Bachelor\u2019s degree in Elementary Bilingual Education and two Master\u2019s degrees from ASU in Middle School STEM and Educational Leadership. As a Fulbright recipient, Nava has developed curriculum and trained teachers in a small town near Barcelona, aligning perfectly with her love for education and travel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Having grown up near the ASU Prep Phoenix campus, she feels a deep sense of responsibility to give back to her community. As a TTL, Nava is excited to guide both students and teachers, creating a thriving community of learners.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Ginette Rossi<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With an undergraduate degree from Seton Hall and a Master\u2019s from ASU, Ms. Rossi is currently pursuing a PhD in English at ASU. She is a seasoned educator with 25 years of experience and serves as an adjunct professor in addition to being a teaching artist with Phonetic Spit, a youth development program. Rossi has been recognized with honors as the 2023 K\u201312 Inaugural Humanities Teacher of the Year and Catalyst Teacher of the Year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She believes in the profound impact of emotional connection in education, and looks forward to using the TTL role to create lasting, meaningful experiences for both teachers and students.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>A transformative impact on our school community<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ASU Prep Phoenix High School TTL program is an exciting step forward in educational leadership. By embracing this innovative approach, we ensure that our educators can thrive as both teachers and leaders, fostering a vibrant and collaborative school
