We want to bring to your attention a concerning trend that is emerging on social media. This trend, currently circulating on TikTok, involves students deliberately damaging school-issued Chromebooks.

Please work with us in communicating that this type of behavior is both disruptive and potentially dangerous. If students choose to participate in this inappropriate behavior, full replacement of the district Chromebook will be charged to the student’s family at a cost of $341 per device. Additionally, the students involved will face disciplinary action.

Thank you for your continued partnership in supporting a safe learning environment for all students.

Good evening, Sharks!

The end of the 2024-25 academic year is upon us. The elementary and middle school promotion events were awesome! Thanks to Mrs. Crouthamel and Mr. Madsen for putting on such a great shindig. For those of you with graduating seniors, congratulations! We have a nice graduation ceremony planned for you.

For those of you with students who have not yet graduated, we are so excited to see you next year. Also, this is a reminder that we are offering summer school for our high school students this summer. If your student is interested in summer school and hasn't signed up yet, please give us a call.

Have a great weekend!

If you get a chance, drive by campus along Oceanside Blvd. You will see the general elevations across the new campus. We are at a point where a lot of work will be done behind the scenes in preparation for Phase 2 so we won't see heavy equipment back on campus until the Fall. The biggest changes we will see over the summer is the demolition of the house and installation of the permanent fence along the south and west sides of campus.

Surfside Educational Academy's First Annual Senior Night – Class of 2025

Surfside Educational Academy hosted its very first Annual Senior Night to honor a few of the incredible achievements of the Class of 2025. This heartfelt event recognized students who earned prestigious scholarships, participated in our MiraCosta College Dual Enrollment Hospitality Pathway, and those who made the admirable commitment to serve in the United States Military.

We were proud to welcome inspiring guest speakers from our local community and the military, as well as our amazing Hospitality teacher from MiraCosta College, whose guidance has helped shape future leaders in the industry—thank you for helping us celebrate these outstanding students.

Our event was wonderfully emceed by Principal Frandsen, Assistant Principal Donna Wilkins, and Guidance Counselor Stephanie Wynne, whose heartfelt words and warm energy helped make the night truly memorable. We were especially honored to have Dr. Lovie, Associate Superintendent of OUSD, join us in support of our students and school community.

A special thank you goes out to all the families who came to cheer on their graduates. Your love and support made the night even more meaningful. Together, we celebrated not just academic milestones, but the character, dedication, and bright futures of these amazing young people.

What a great night—one we will never forget. Here's to the Class of 2025!

"During the Day, Off and Away"

To create a focused learning environment and support student mental health, Oceanside Unified School District will now require all student cell phones to be off and stowed in backpacks upon entering campus and remain off until leaving. Exceptions are made for students with IEPs or 504 plans if specified for medical or anxiety-related needs, as determined by site administration. Classrooms have landlines for students to contact parents if needed, and students will have access to their phones during emergencies. The policy aims to reduce distractions, enhance engagement, and prevent cyberbullying, while also reducing the risk of phone theft or loss. Support and disciplinary actions for policy violations could include warnings, phone calls home, and phone confiscations, with increasing consequences for repeated offenses. OUSD is committed to student safety and mental health, fostering academic and emotional growth. For more details, refer to OUSD's Handbook.

Every family should know that every child in the Oceanside Unified School District (OUSD) has the Constitutional right to attend school regardless of immigration status. OUSD does not request or record information about a student’s immigration status.

OUSD does not permit non-students, including ICE agents, access to OUSD facilities unless they can produce a warrant signed by a federal judge. School administrators will not permit the disclosure of confidential student information without first consulting their attorney to make sure that the information has been properly subject to a federal judge’s warrant.

Families should consult community resources to learn their rights and additional information will be provided to help families access these resources
