Family Messenger March 29, 2011

God of Mercy,
How often you have forgiven us!
Help us to be more forgiving of others.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.


A Message from the Principal

Thank you to all who supported the auction free dress day last Friday. It was a great success! As you know, the money earned at this year’s auction will be allocated to our air conditioning fund. Prior to 2007, plans for the electrical upgrade and air conditioning project were put in motion and at that time it was estimated that each project would cost approximately $300,000 for a total of approximately $600,000.

With air conditioning there are several options to consider. It is estimated that the cost of air conditioning will cost between $13,000 - $20,000 per classroom (total of 14 classrooms, not including ASP room). We currently have $90,000 set aside for air conditioning to begin phasing units in. The more we money we make at the auction, the more we can do. Keep selling raffle tickets and soliciting donations!

This week I am serving on a WASC Accreditation Committee. I will be out of the office through Thursday, March 31.

Ms. Olivia Carrillo
Principal
