Certificated Job Fair!

As your principal, it is my responsibility to address concerns that impact our school community. Recently, there have been instances of conflicts and fighting within our school, and I feel it is crucial to address this issue openly.

Our school is a place of learning, growth, and respect. Every student deserves to feel safe and supported in their academic journey. It is disappointing  to see behaviors that go against the values we hold dear.

Conflict is a natural part of life, but it is important] that we approach it in a healthy and constructive manner. Violence and fighting are never acceptable solutions to problems. Instead, let us focus on having restorative conversations,  and understanding to resolve conflicts.

I encourage each and every one of you to take a moment to reflect on your actions impact the school.  Whether you run towards the fight, record the fight, share the fight, and or instigate the fight, all this contributes to the unacceptable behavior at school.  If you find yourself in a difficult situation, please reach out to a teacher, counselor, or any trusted adult who can help mediate and provide support.

Our school is committed to creating a positive and safe environment where everyone can thrive academically and socially. Let us work together to restore the justices; a culture of respect, kindness, and cooperation. Remember, we are a community, and it is up to each one of us to contribute positively to the well-being of our school.

**If you have any concerns or suggestions, please feel free to share them with administration or the school counselors. Let's work together to make our school a place where everyone feels valued and safe.**

This is your final weekly message from Dr. Suzie Andreas-Bervel, Superintendent of the Wilsona School District, for the 2022-2023 school year.

Congratulations to the 4th grade that had the best attendance this week, followed by Kindergarten in 2nd place and 8th grade in 3rd place! Since this is the end of the school year, I want to announce the overall attendance challenge winners for the year. In 3rd place, we had 3rd grade, in 2nd place, we had 2nd grade, and the winner for the best attendance for the 2022-23 school year was… 5TH GRADE! Thank you to our students and parents for focusing on regular school attendance, because success begins with attendance!

We had a beautiful promotion ceremony at Challenger yesterday where we said goodbye to our 8th graders and sent them off to the next phase of their educational career. It filled my heart with such joy to see our families celebrating with their children, taking photos and staying afterward for refreshments. I was very proud and a little excited to see our students walk in for the ceremony, wearing their burgundy gowns, and I was grateful to be able to provide our students and families with this beautiful experience.

A few friendly reminders for you:

*   Summer School and the Summer RISE program begin on Tuesday, June 6. All Summer School classes will be at Vista San Gabriel this year due to facilities projects taking place over the summer.
*   All students entering 7th grade must have their Tdap shot to receive their schedules and start school in August. Our district nurse, April Holmes, can provide immunizations to families by appointment only. Contact the district nurse at extension 7500 for appointments or information.
*   Our Save the Children Reading Challenge will run from now until September. This is a great way to keep your child reading over the summer. Pick up a reading log at any school or district office.

Our school offices will be closing soon. However, the District Office at 18050 East Avenue O will be open all summer from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm, Monday through Friday. If you need help or have questions, please call our hotline at 661-264-1111 and we will connect you with someone who can help you.

I really appreciate all of you for your support this year. We have worked hard to meet the academic, social, and emotional needs of our students, while making it a great school experience for all. Classes begin on Monday, August 14. I hope you have a wonderful summer and enjoy time with your children.
