Congratulations to our Student of The Week for November 5 - 9,
Christopher Peredia.
Chris was chosen by his teachers for his diligence in his work, this year especially. Last year Chris waited for everything and was not as successful as he could have been. This year he has realized that he is in charge of his educational success and he has done an outstanding job in the classroom. Chris is another one of our students who gets involved in school by playing on our athletic teams including our flag football and basketball teams.
Congratulations Chris, 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.

We are inviting all Del Mar parents and families to get involved in our school through the School Site Council (SSC). SSC is a group of family members, staff and community members who meet once a month to determine how the school will function and spend available monies. Parental involvement is a critical component of the SSC make-up. In your summer mailing packet you received nomination forms to nominate yourself or someone else for School Site Council membership. We meet on the fourth Wednesday of each month at Del Mar at 2:30. We are usually done by 3:30. If you would be interested in becoming a SSC member, please call Mr. Sellers at school.
Hope to see you there!
