Volunteer Fingerprinting Opportunity
Glendale Prep will be offering a volunteer fingerprinting opportunity on Wednesday, June 5th from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. If you are planning to help at the school or any school event, you will need to go through this fingerprinting process. Most often fingerprint clearances are good for three years. Please schedule your appointment time here.The school incurs a $20 processing fee from the state of AZ for each volunteer fingerprinted. If you are able to make a donation to help offset the cost, we would be grateful. A donation can be made on the payment portal, or by cash/check to the front office. Fingerprint clearances issued by Glendale Prep are valid for Archway Glendale, as well.

Yearbooks
We have a small number of 2019-20 yearbooks available for purchase. Come to the front office with $50 cash or check during office hours.

It is especially important that junior parents attend with their student to confirm their student blazer size as blazers are nonexchangeable and nonrefundable.

Fall Typing Class
Students interested in improving their typing skills will be able to take a typing class next school year. Classes will meet after school once per week for ten weeks. Each class will be one hour long. Students will be provided with a laptop to use. The instructor will provide a focused typing environment, personalized feedback, instruction, and assigned practice that will improve typing proficiency. Typists of all levels may join. The cost is $50 for the ten-week course. Spots are limited and will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis. If there is significant demand, a second course may be offered at the beginning of the spring semester. Please email Mr. Oakes (loakes@glendaleprep.org) to register your student and secure his or her spot in the class.
