Good morning, Chandler.

Chandler Unified School District reached a historic milestone as six schools were honored as 2026 A-Plus Schools of Excellence by the Arizona Educational Foundation.

The awards recognize excellence at Andersen, Conley, Haley, Navarrete, Knox Gifted Academy, and Chandler High School.

Chandler water manager Simone Kjolsrud said the city may face aquifer stress if Colorado River cuts force more groundwater pumping; officials are partnering with the Army Corps to study projects that secure new water supplies before shortages hit.

After a decade-long climb, the Casteel High School girls soccer team clinched the 3A Conference crown by defeating Xavier Prep 4-3 on penalty kicks today, finishing a season marked by state ranking + strong college commitments.
