Del Mar students participated in the Statewide Character Counts day on September 26th and all during the month of September. Students did activities that ASB had organized and did writing and discussions. Character Education is an ongoing theme at Del Mar and supplemented weekly in our Thursday 5th period rotations. We work continually with our students to help them make good choices with positive outcomes. Please click on this headline to open the link and see pictures.

Pablo is a polite, hard working student who is well liked by his teachers and peers.
Congratulations Pablo, we are very proud of you!

On Tuesday October 2nd we took an all school field trip to the Cabrillo Marine Museum in San Pedro. The trip was made possible by a generous grant from the San Gabriel Education Foundation who paid for the bus and all fees. Students toured the aquarium, visited their science classroom, hands on tidal pool and participated in a beach activity. The event is followed up with a reflective writing assignment in each of the classes here at Del Mar. This is a part of our cultural and environmental awareness program that exposes our students to new experiences and habitats that will broaden their academic horizon. We thank SEF for their funding to make this program possible each year.
There are many pictures of the trip in the "Photo Albums" tab. Find Cabrillo Beach Trip folder to see the pictures.
