JUAN CISCOMANI of arizona in the house of representatives Tuesday, April 28, 2026 Mr. CISCOMANI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the 100th Anniversary of Marana Unified School District. For the past century, Marana Unified has excelled in its one very important mission: educating our children. Marana Unified School District takes its responsibility seriously and over the past 100 years has forged a well-deserved reputation for academic excellence. Marana's top-quality schools are high on the list of reasons that families want to live in Marana. [[Page E383]] The district has grown to include twenty schools--Tangerine Farms K-8 and Marana Vista Academy opened just last year. It now serves 13,000 students from preschool through 12th grade and is home to 2,000 dedicated employees. Ranked in the top 1 percent of Arizona districts for academic growth, Marana Unified provides an exceptional education to all its students, from kindergarten to high school. The district offers a wide array of outstanding academic programs, including an advanced Special Education program, a Gifted and Talented Education program, and 21st Century Community Learning Center opportunities to foster college and career readiness. In addition to academics, Marana Unified also excels in its athletic programs. Throughout the decades, the district has built a legacy of athletic excellence, from championship football and basketball teams to competitive volleyball, soccer, and tennis programs. I congratulate Marana Unified School District, Superintendent Dr. Dan Streeter, teachers and staff, and students and families on 100 years of academic excellence. Their commitment to learning and growth has made education in Marana what it is today. If it is true that education is the key to a better future--and I firmly believe it is--then Marana is where those keys are made. May they enjoy this accomplishment. Here is to the many years ahead and generations of Marana students to come who will be impacted by their work. ____________________
