The Spartan Times

Dear Chula Vista High School Community,

As the holiday season approaches, I am filled with immense pride and excitement to share the remarkable achievements of our SCPA performing arts groups. Last week and over the weekend, our talented students showcased their exceptional talent and dedication through a series of captivating performances that left audiences mesmerized.

This weekend, the SCPA Choir captivated the crowd with their vibrant energy and harmonious melodies at the Christmas tree lighting ceremony in Little Italy, bringing joy and festive cheer to the community. Their performance was truly a highlight of the event, and I am incredibly proud of their dedication and hard work. In addition to the Choir performance at the tree lighting ceremony, our SCPA students also delighted the community with their participation in the Chula Vista Starlight Parade this evening.

The success of our SCPA performing arts groups is a testament to the exceptional talent of our students and the unwavering commitment of our dedicated teachers. Their passion for the arts is evident in every performance, and I am continually amazed by their ability to create such captivating and memorable experiences for our community.

As the holiday season continues, I encourage you to join us for our upcoming SCPA holiday performances. These performances are a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the arts and enjoy the talents of our incredible students.

As we enter the final stretch of the semester, I want to remind everyone that we only have two weeks left of school. This week is the last regular A-B block week, with the second and final week being finals week. Please make the most of this remaining time to focus on your studies and finish the semester strong.

I encourage you to take advantage of the resources available to you, such as our morning and afternoon tutoring program. Don't hesitate to reach out to your teachers or counselors if you have any questions or concerns.

Thank you for your continued hard work and dedication. I am proud to be your principal, and I look forward to a strong finish to the semester.

Go Spartans!

Sincerely,

Julio Alcala

Principal
