Welcome Back Community, Parents, Students, and Staff!
It's hard to believe that Monday is the first day of school. We are so excited! The energy on campus is really amazing and the students we have met already through our bridging program have been beyond motivating. In addition we have some amazing new staff. This was my best year of hiring yet! Each new teacher also has a mentor and we did a team building lunch. Check it out!
Our new teachers are as follows:
Jonathan Medina--Physics and Green Up--ENGINEERING: Jon was with us years ago and the students loved him; we are glad he's back.
Claire Orozsco: Medical Interventions and Biology: BIOMED Pathway: She is starting to look at internships and has already taught the MI course!
Gloria MiMi Lee: ELD/ALD and English: Three HS principals recommended her.
Sierra Ramirez: Physiology and PE: New and comes from the medical field/research field.
Luke Silva: English: I have never seen contacted by so many families on behalf of this man and their need to tell me what an amazing relationship builder he his. SHS was happy to get him.
Dana Rizell: Chemistry: Sarah Moynes got a promotion and Dana had more than enough qualifications to step right in and her wonder reputation made her an easy hire.
We also have many new case managers and SEA on staff in order to support these teachers as well.
Lastly we have Susan Skinner: former Head Counselor of Serra High for many years! We are happy to have her this year subbing in with our ninth graders. If you are new to SHS ask the community....Susan is a legend!
SHS is set up for success!
Here is what you need to know for Monday and then my blog will be coming out every weekend for the following week. Don't forget tonight is our football team vs Scripps Ranch at Scripps!
When you arrive on campus:
You will be directed by adults (all over the place) to a board.
Then you will find your ID number (student ID)
Then it will give you a room number to go to: that is your period 1 class
In your period 1 class you will be given your schedule for the rest of the year; your students will watch an opening from me and then the teacher will continue the class.
IMPORTANT! We want to be clear.
There are no schedule changes.
If there is a gross error then you will be able to make a request such as a course you already took or two math courses etc. No other reasons will be considered. This procedure will then come into play: See below.
We wish you an amazing 2019-2020 school year.
Your Admin Team!
Erica, Elizabeth, and Nicholas
