PRINCIPAL MESSAGE

Dear Parents/Guardians,

First of all, I want to thank the parents of selected students in 3rd -5 the grade for their cooperation with after-school and Saturday tutorials. Tutorials are being held Monday -Thursday during the week from 4:00-5:15 p.m. and on Saturday from 8:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m. Students are expected to be in tutoring everyday. Together we can help close the achievement gap for your child.

Secondly, I'd like to take this time to congratulate the homeroom in each grade level that collected the most cans. They are Kinder-Mrs. Amaya's class, 1st grade -Mrs. Gutierrez's class, 2nd grade- Ms. Lopez's class, 3rd grade-Mrs. Naranjo's class, 4th grade -Mr Garcia's class, and 5th grade-Mrs. Del Angel's class. Congratulations to each of these classes. Each If the winning homerooms will receive a treat during the last week before the Christmas break.

Have a wonderful weekend and try to stay warm.
