On Friday we took students to Eaton Canyon Falls for a school outing. It was a great bonding time for our Del Mar family. The afternoon hike was followed by by our second Movie Game Night from 6:00 to 9:00. Students came back to Del Mar to challenge teachers in "Just Dance", watch movies, eat pizza and ice cream and just hang out. It was a great day/night to be a Dolphin.

Congratulations to our Student of the Week for February 4-8, Karla Martinez.
Karla was chosen by her teachers because she has made so many positive changes since she has come to our school. Before Del Mar, Karla was a student who did not feel comfortable attending school. Since enrolling at Del Mar she has blossomed into a student who participates in her classes, who interacts well with her peers and who is a very contentious student who works hard to complete her work with quality. Karla has found a home at Del Mar and we are so glad that she has joined our family!
Congratulations Karla, we are very proud of you!!
