SUPERINTENDENT'S WEEKLY NEWSLETTER

Dear CSD Parents,

We’re thrilled to share that this week’s Family Coding Night at Los Amigos Elementary School was a huge success! We had an amazing turnout, and it was fantastic to see so many families come together to explore the world of coding and technology.

The evening featured a fun and interactive challenge where students and their families used their computer science skills, along with creativity and innovation, to design their own virtual pets using micro:bits. It was inspiring to see the different ideas come to life as families worked together to program their pets with unique behaviors and interactive features.

To make the night even more exciting, we held a raffle, and several lucky students walked away with their very own micro:bits to continue exploring and creating at home. We can’t wait to see the amazing projects that will come from these new tools!

A huge thank you to everyone who attended and participated in making this event such a success. A special thank you to Mrs. Muñoz, Mr. Alcala, and the Los Amigos Elementary School staff for their hard work in organizing and putting this event together. Their dedication and effort truly made the night a memorable experience for everyone.

It’s clear that our community is filled with talented and enthusiastic problem-solvers, and we are proud to be fostering a space where both students and families can learn and grow together.

We look forward to more events like this in the future and hope to see you all again soon! Have a great 3 day weekend!

Sincerely,
Michael Chaix, Ed.D.
Superintendent

Celebrating Student Growth with a Sweet Surprise!

Our students have been working hard to grow their skills, and we couldn’t be prouder of their progress on the recent iReady assessment! To celebrate those who achieved 100% growth, we surprised them with a special Sundae Party featuring delicious ice cream from Brewster’s. It was a joyful event filled with smiles, laughter, and a well-earned sweet treat, recognizing the dedication and perseverance of our students.

While this celebration honored those who reached their growth goal, we want to acknowledge the tremendous effort of all our students. So many are incredibly close, and we know they can reach that milestone soon! We encourage everyone to keep pushing forward, because another exciting surprise celebration is just around the corner. Big shout out to all of our students and staff that worked so hard to make this special day happen. We can’t wait to see even more students join us next time as we continue to celebrate hard work, progress, and the power of persistence!
