NOTE: For the 2021-22 school year, our school is following the district's Safe School Opening Plan, which is based on the California Dept of Public Health's "COVID-19 Public Health Guidance for K-12 Schools in California, 2021-22 School Year." For more details, please contact the school office.

Exciting changes are coming in science as we implement the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). California has adopted a new set of standards which focus on disciplinary core ideas taught using performance expectations which will shift science instruction to a much more hands-on, project based learning approach.

Our schools have established engaging STEAM education lessons for students, and have begun incorporating design thinking into the educational experiences.

Our school has a number of programs and staff dedicated to providing support to all students, including Resource Specialist Programs (RSP) and Special Education aides to support students in small groups.

We are committed to providing the resources and tools to make sure every student achieves at the highest levels. These specialized instruction programs ensure that all students are guaranteed an education that's truly beyond the expected.

Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts, & Mathematics—is more than just the subjects in its name. It’s about blending those disciplines in ways that promote collaboration, communication, critical thinking and creative problem solving. Through STEAM students discover meaningful, creative and innovative ways to expand and connect interdisciplinary learning through experimentation and imagination. This will help them apply their learning to succeed in real world settings.
