Adalina Hernandez stands in line to get her book Jo Dares to be Different signed by author
Maria Angeles Rodriguez Vazquez and illustrated by Jovita Wallace. This is the second book
Vazquez has written in her Flying Cow series. The book follows a young immigrant who is
relocated and finds solace through seven cows and a cat that help her to overcome being bullied
for her differences.
The Ajo Center for Sustainable Agriculture held an official grand opening to mark the
completion of a recently remodeled physical location for their Farmers Market and Café at 100
Estrella Avenue. For years the Ajo CSA has organized weekend outdoor farmers market events
but, said CSA director Nina Sajovec, now people will be able to buy their veggies more often
during the week. The space is also equipped with a commercial kitchen to allow food vendors to
offer prepared food more easily.
Angie Harmon, social investment manager at Freeport-McMoRan, joined local farm manager
Sterling Johnson, CSA director Nina Sajovec, Ajo District Chamber of Commerce director Bo
Johnson, Pima County supervisor Sharon Bronson, and Annelise Keuper, owner of Curley Coffee,
in a ribbon cutting ceremony at the Ajo Farmers Market & Café last week.
School board to meet this week
The governing board of Ajo Unified School District will meet this week
with a study session on Tuesday, December 10, and regular session on
Wednesday, December 11. Board meetings are open to the public and begin
at 5:30 p.m. in the boardroom on the south side of the media center on the
school campus on Well Road.
At the Tuesday study session, the board will discuss the personnel and
business items they will be voting on the next day as well as learn about a
proposed budget revision, hear about out-of-state travel for the art club, and
discuss board agenda modifications for visitors’ comments and information
and action items. They will adjourn into executive session for the superin-
tendent’s evaluation.
At the Wednesday regular session, they will make decisions on employ-
ment, including coaching position resignations and reassignments and em-
ployment of maintenance workers, as well as consideration of the proposed
budget revision, construction bids, price quotes, and Proposition 301 pay-
ments to certified staff.
