REFLECTION OF THE YEAR by Helen Lee
As this calendar year approaches, I would like to thank our families for all your support this school year. This semester has been so fruitful for me as new principal as well as for whole school. So many amazing events, such as MCC LA RAMS visiting campus and CGI Open Class, took place in-person where not only students truly enjoyed them but our teachers, staff and parents also took a great pleasure in planning and participating in them. I want to take this time to thank each and everyone for being a wonderful member of 3rd Street Community and to express how grateful and proud I am to be a part of this learning group.
MAKING CARING COMMON PARENT SURVEY
This is our first year implementing the Making Caring Common Program, and we would like your honest feedback around this topic. Parents, please complete this survey to help us help our children. The link is live and can be completed until end of the Month of December.
CASINO & COCKTAILS SEEKING SILENT AUCTION DONATIONS
As part of this special fundraiser for our school on Friday, February 10th we are curating the silent auction with fan favorite experiences and we need your help!
