Stay Up to Date—Willcox Unified News

We may be a small district, but there is always a lot happening here at Willcox Unified. Check here for news and events going on in our schools. We’ll update it regularly so you always have the most current information possible.

Notice of Intent to Destroy Special Education Records

Special education records collected by the Willcox Unified School District are maintained for a period of five years after special education services have ended for a student. Special education services end when the student is no longer eligible for services, withdraws from the district, graduates, or completes his or her educational program. Records for students no longer receiving special education services on or before September 1, 2019, will be destroyed in accordance with Arizona state law. Parents/guardians or eligible adult students can contact Farbod Safavi at (520) 384-8607 by October 14, 2025, to obtain a copy of the records.
