Wellness Policy

Wellness Policy Goals Goal for Nutritional Promotion: The school district encourages students to participate in appropriate meal programs with the menus posted to the district website each week. The school district also encourages both staff and students to be actively engaged in the school garden and other local events when appropriate (county fair, local farms, etc.). Students will not be permitted to bring soda, energy drinks, or other drinks high in sugar and/or caffeine. Unopened confiscated beverages will be returned at the end of the school day, and replaced with a more appropriate beverage from the cafeteria.
Goal for Nutrition Education: Nutrition education will be taught based on the current standards to all students, kindergarten – 8th grade. Nutrition education is to be included in both health and physical education classes along with other subjects, such as math, science, language arts, and social sciences. Through teaching and through example, staff will cover a variety of nutrition topics with students throughout the year, including the importance of breakfast and water consumption, eating a variety of foods each day, choosing foods with little added sugar, and more.

Maine Consolidated School is in compliance with the Arizona Healthy Schools Act.

Dan Messer

Facilities Coordinator

I have been at Maine School since 2022 as the Maintenance Coordinator. I am originally from Rushville, Indiana (home of Tony Stewart) but I have been living in Northern Arizona since 2018. I have mechanic experience and find enjoyment in fixing things. My pastimes include working on cars, hunting, and spending time with family.

Just a little bit about myself…I was born in Marengo, Iowa the son of a high school teacher (father) and nurse (mother). I received my schooling in a small farming town in Northeast Iowa. I received my undergraduate degree from the University of Iowa in elementary education, my master’s degree and doctorate from Northern Arizona University in educational leadership.

I moved to Tuba City in 1996 and began my teaching career. I taught 14 years with the Tuba City Unified School District grades 2-6 and was a principal for 11 years on four different campuses.

In addition to spending time with students, staff and families, I am an avid sports fan. I enjoy spending time with my three children in the outdoors. Some of the activities we are fond of are swimming, camping and hiking; as well as road trips to new destinations.

Jan Moore

ESS Director -

I graduated from Arizona State University in 1999 with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Special Education. I then went on to complete master’s degrees in school counseling and educational leadership.  I lived in the valley since I was 8 years old and wanted a change from the city and the heat! I moved to Parks in 2020 to enjoy my retirement among the trees and the cool weather. 

After enjoying retirement and getting settled into my new life, I found I missed teaching and the students. I returned to work at Maine in 2024 and have enjoyed getting to know the school, staff, and the community.

My name is Kaylee Sandall and it’s a privilege to serve on the school board and to be part of such a close-knit, supportive community. I’ve always had a deep love for Parks —growing up just down the road in Flagstaff, I spent plenty of time here and grew up knowing this special place well. My family and I lived in Parks about 16 years ago, and even then, we knew we wanted to end up here for good. Four years ago, we were fortunate enough to return and make Parks our home again. Our four kids now attend/have attended Maine Consolidated. 

Being involved in our school and giving back to the community that has helped shape me and is shaping my own kids, is incredibly meaningful. I care deeply about the success of our students, the strength of our schools, and the future of Parks. It’s an honor to contribute to that future through my work on the board.
