Dear Evergreen Families,

February was a month full of exciting events, activities, and learning. We experienced so many wonderful moments that truly showcased the spirit of our school community:

• Diamond Bar High School Children's Theater delighted us with their performance of Big Hero 6
• We proudly recognized Evergreen's Super Star Student and Partners in Education at the February Board meeting
• Our Annual Poetry Festival celebrated the creativity and literary talents of our students
• We hosted our First Ever Father Daughter Dance, creating memorable moments for our families
• We celebrated Evergreen's Teacher of the Year, Mrs. Wong, honoring her exceptional dedication to education

It was a month full of learning and joy. As we close the month of February and head into March, we begin to set our eyes on ensuring our students are getting their support for the upcoming statewide assessments. We also have our First Annual Leadership Day Event taking place this month, the Color Fun Run, and so much more. March is an exciting month, and your partnership is appreciated.

Please continue reading for more detailed information about the various activities and news.

Warmly,

Dr. Cardenas

Principal, Evergreen Elementary School

Dear Evergreen Parents,

I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for making our first-ever Father/Daughter Dance such a resounding success! The smiles on the girls' and father figures' faces said it all – it was truly a magical evening that created precious memories.

A special thank you goes out to all our incredible volunteers who made this event possible. From decorations to refreshments to photography, your dedication and hard work shined through in every detail. It was truly a team effort, and I'm proud to be part of this amazing Community Club that brings such joy to our school.

Looking ahead, we have some exciting events coming up:

Fun Run/Color Run: March 14
Thank you for your generous donations so far! Your support helps make these special activities possible for our students.

We are excited to share that Franklin Covey has chosen Evergreen to serve as a host school during this year's Leader in Me Symposium in Los Angeles County. This recognition presents an outstanding opportunity to showcase our school's successful implementation of the Leader in Me program.

EVENT UPDATE: The big day is less than one week away! Our students and staff have been working diligently to prepare for this special occasion.

Evergreen will host approximately 100 attendees, educators from several school districts for a special Leadership Day visit from 10:15 AM to 12:00 PM on Thursday, March 13. What makes this event particularly special is that it will be 90% student-led, demonstrating our students' remarkable growth and leadership development in just our second year of implementation.

IMPORTANT REMINDER: This is a "Dress to Impress" event. All students and staff are encouraged to dress in business attire!

Thank you to our students, staff, and families for helping make this implementation such a success!

The gymnasium at Evergreen School was transformed for our first-ever Father-Daughter Dance, welcoming more than 200 daughters and their father figures for a special evening together.

The dance floor was active throughout the night as families enjoyed a variety of music, creating new memories together. Fathers and daughters participated in fun games designed to strengthen their special bond.

Our dessert table offered delicious treats that provided the perfect refreshment between dances. The photo booth captured many smiles and moments that families will remember for years to come.

The strong attendance showed how much our Evergreen community values these connections and the important role father figures play in our daughters' lives.

Thanks to all who attended and to our volunteers who made this evening possible. We look forward to continuing this new tradition in the years ahead!

During our school-wide spirit assembly, we had an extra special surprise—announcing Evergreen’s Teacher of the Year! And what a surprise it was for Mrs. Julie Wong!

Not only was she recognized in front of the entire school, but the celebration was made even more special with another unexpected twist—her family was there to celebrate with her! Her husband, kids, grandchildren, and more joined in the excitement, making the moment truly unforgettable.

Mrs. Wong’s dedication, passion, and commitment to our students make her so deserving of this honor. We are so grateful to have her as part of our Evergreen family!

Congratulations, Mrs. Wong! 🎊👏

Last month's school board meeting was an exciting evening filled with joy and recognition! We proudly celebrated our Evergreen Superstar Student, Tessa Fernando, along with our incredible Partners in Education, Charlotte Wu and Ray Dagnino!

We also gave a warm welcome to our newest staff members:
🍎 1st Grade Teachers: Isabel Mosso & Rachel Cho
🗣️ Speech Pathologist: Amy Takamoto
🌍 Bilingual Aide: Annie Wu
☀️ Noon Aide: Kunapathy Velar

It was wonderful to see so many Evergreen staff and families come together to honor these amazing individuals. Thank you for your dedication and contributions to our school community! 💚✨

Our 2nd–5th graders took the stage for Evergreen’s Annual Poetry Festival, and they absolutely amazed us! From heartfelt recitations to powerful performances, our students showcased their incredible public speaking skills, bringing poetry to life with clarity and expression.

As a Leader in Me school, we empower our students to lead with confidence, and this festival was a perfect example of that! These young leaders shined as public speakers, finding their voice and using it to inspire others. We’re so proud of their hard work and bravery in sharing their poems in front of their peers. Bravo to all our amazing poets! 👏📖
