Parent Newsletter for 2022-03-13

Good evening El Puente Families,

 

We hope you all are enjoying some of our nice sunny days as we transition into spring soon.  If you have any questions or suggestions regarding the following updates, please do not hesitate to reach out.

 

MASKS

Beginning Monday, March 14th, masks will be strongly recommended for students and staff to wear, but not required.  We understand that this is a sensitive and personal choice for our students and will respect the decisions of students and families regardless.  Please keep in mind that previous covid-19 protocols, such as not attending school when sick or quarantining when testing positive, still remain in effect.

SPRING INTERSESSION

Is your student behind on credits or simply want to jump ahead?  All high school students are welcome to sign-up for Spring Intersession by going to eps.is/Intersession.  Spring intersession takes place March 28th through April 1st from 8:30 AM to 12:00 PM.  All classes are virtual and students can earn up to 5 credits.  Deadline to sign up is Tuesday, March 22nd

ELAC/PARENT MEETING

Our next ELAC and Parent Meeting will be on Wednesday, March 23rd at 6:00 PM. Join us by going to eps.is/ELAC.  This is a great way to get involved and have your voices heard.

SENIOR GRAD NITE

Our Senior Grad Nite trip to Disneyland will take place on May 18th-19th.  Tickets are $180 per student and spots will be allocated on a first come first serve basis.  To secure a spot, cash or a check payable to SUHSD must be submitted to the front office.

MyON CHALLENGE

We will be holding a Spring MyON Reading challenge from March 14th to April 4th. Students who read the most will receive target gift cards for their efforts!  Contact your student’s teacher for more information about how to access MyON books.
