📢 Dear Descanso Families, We hope this newsletter finds you well as we stride into the final weeks of another extraordinary school year. Despite the April showers, our spirits remain bright as we continue to celebrate excellence, express gratitude, and gear up for exciting upcoming events.
Celebrating Excellence at Morning Assembly:
Friday, amidst the gloomy weather, we honored the shining stars of our school community. Through the intercom, we proudly announced the names of students who have consistently demonstrated our core values of safety, respect, and responsibility. Congratulations to all for their outstanding achievements!
Administrative Assistant Day:
On Wednesday, April 24th, we took a moment to express our deep appreciation for our remarkable secretary, Ms. Peggy. With heartfelt gratitude, we showered her with tokens of appreciation, including flowers, cards, gifts, and a staff potluck as we celebrated her unwavering dedication to keeping our school running smoothly. While it fills our hearts with mixed emotions to bid farewell to Ms. Peggy at the end of this year, we're excited for her to embark on new adventures, spending time with family, tending to her garden, and indulging in well-deserved fun.
We're also thrilled to welcome Angelica Castaneda to our team. Mrs. Castaneda's diverse experience and expertise, coupled with her warm spirit, make her a valuable addition to our Descanso family.
Upcoming Events:
School Principal Appreciation Day - May 1st: Let's show our gratitude and admiration as we celebrate School Principal Appreciation Day on May 1st.
Teacher and Classified Personnel Appreciation Week - May 6th-10th: Join us in honoring our dedicated teachers and classified personnel during this special week. As a community, let's express our heartfelt gratitude for their unwavering commitment to our students and school.
State CAASPP Testing: As we gear up for State CAASPP testing beginning on May 6th, please stay tuned for more information in the coming weeks. We appreciate your support as we strive for excellence in academic achievement.
As we navigate the remainder of the school year together, let's continue to uplift and support one another, celebrating each success and facing challenges with resilience and grace.
