E.O. Green Junior High School Families,

We are excited to start the new year with our E.O. Green community. For our 8th-grade families, this is an especially significant time as we approach milestone events like 8th-grade promotion and the transition to high school.

This month, we also take time to celebrate and honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s legacy. In observance of this day, School will be closed on Monday, January 20, 2025.

As we returned to school, all students participated in behavior expectation assemblies. These sessions provided important reminders about our expectations regarding dress code, attendance, and behavior on campus.

Progress reports will be sent home on Thursday, January 24, 2025. We encourage families to take time leading up to this date to discuss class performance and progress with their students. Open communication is key to supporting academic success.

We also want to thank CalFresh Healthy Living for collaborating with our Hive Wellness Center to present valuable information to our families about the importance of healthy eating.

As we receive more details about high school matriculation, we will share updates with our 8th-grade families to ensure a smooth transition.

Warm regards,

Principal Sanchez
