From our Co-Principals
Dear Parents and Students,
As we approach the holiday season, we want to take a moment to wish all of you a restful and reflective break. It’s also a time to reflect on how proud we are of our Hornets, especially our boys' football team, who brought home the California High School CIF State Division 1-AA championship. Their dedication, teamwork, and spirit are a true inspiration to us all!
We are delighted to announce that Amy Boden has been selected as our Teacher of the Year! Amy’s unwavering commitment to supporting our students and the profound impact she has on their growth and success is truly exceptional. Please join us in celebrating her well-deserved recognition!
Congratulations to Mr. Perine and our talented students in the band and orchestra for their outstanding Winter Concert! The performance was truly lovely and highlighted the skill and passion of our musicians. Thank you to everyone involved for making it such a memorable event!
We encourage our students to use these final five days of Quarter 2 to finish strong and stay focused. Students should be communicating directly with their teachers regarding any opportunities to submit an assignment or retake an assessment. Your hard work and commitment matter!
Students, please join us for a Holiday Spirit week. See details below.
