Good morning, Gilbert. Here's your local news at a glance for Sunday, the 14th of September.

EDUCATION NEWS

  • Nine school districts including Gilbert Public Schools met behind closed doors last week to plan legal action against EVIT over millions in funds for on-campus career programs—aiming to keep local CTE options active. EVIT criticized the secret meetings and said that while no programs will close, a lawsuit could burden taxpayers by diverting funds from classrooms to courtrooms.  Gilbert Sun News
  • The Gilbert Public Schools Governing Board approved the first revision to its fiscal year 2025-26 budget on Sept. 9 using updated figures for state changes and extra funds. Finance Director Jackie Mattinen explained the changes and the board passed the vote unanimously — a move that reflects added funding measures.  Gilbert Independent

HEALTH NEWS

  • High school athletes from across Arizona have joined the Teen Lifeline campaign to record Messages of Hope videos that remind teens help is always available — five participants from Gilbert took part in the project with clips filmed in Paradise Valley set to air on social media and at school announcements throughout September.  Gilbert Independent

SPORTS NEWS

  • Chandler-Gilbert area player Jace Huma, a member of the Hopi Tribe, played on the first Native American team at the 2025 Babe Ruth World Series in Branson, Missouri in August.
