The Mid-Del Board of Education named Mrs. Ashley Rodriguez as an Instructional Facilitator for Special Services.

Mrs. Rodriguez is beginning her 13th year in the field of special education and brings a lifelong passion for supporting students to her new role. Her calling to special education began early—she knew as a sixth-grade student that she wanted to become a special education teacher.

Mrs. Rodriguez earned her bachelor’s degree in Special Education from the University of the Southwest and her master’s degree in Special Education from Grand Canyon University.

In her new role, Mrs. Rodriguez looks forward to continuing to support students while collaborating with teachers, administrators, and families across Mid-Del Schools.

The countdown to the first day of school is ON, and our elementary students have an important stop before the big day!

🍎 Elementary Meet the Teacher Night

Completing both enrollment phases allows us to finalize class placements, student schedules, and transportation routes so your child is ready for the first day of school.
