College 

The University of Arizona

Sunnyside is proud to have a partnership with the University of Arizona that focuses on supporting our students in attending the U of A after high school. Our partnership allows us to have two dedication reps working with us on campus weekly. 

Daniel Gastelum: Available Mondays and Thursdays in the Counseling office. Daniel primarily supports Native American students with their post secondary plans, but can be available to support any student with their UA questions. Daniel can be reached at: danielg@arizona.edu or by phone at 520-626-3226.
