Principals Message
E.O. GREEN educating partners,
The original decision to not wear gowns during the promotion celebration was due to concerns about environmental effects; perhaps the purchase was a burden, a one-time use item, etc. We are fortunate our district leadership recognizes and understands the staff's concerns and is therefore supporting the purchase of gowns that can be reused in future years. In addition, the students who wish to buy and keep it as a souvenir will be able to purchase and keep it —there will be no fees for borrowing.
All 8th-grade students will be able to borrow a gown. Our fantastic classified staff will be at the exiting gates to collect all the promoting gowns at the end of the promotion ceremony on your way out of campus. Students who purchase the gown will have a special pass to show to staff as they exit the campus. More information is coming soon.
The 7/8th grade students have early dismissal at 1:00 pm during the following dates due to CAASPP State Testing: Monday 5/23/22 and Tuesday 5/24/22
Wednesdays are, as usual, early dismissal at 1:00 pm for all students.
All 6th, 7th, and 8th grades will have Early Dismissal Friday, May 27th, 2022 and Friday, June 3rd, 2022. These dates are teacher planning and collaboration days. Please plan accordingly.
Monday, May 30th, 2022, is Memorial Day Holiday. The school will be closed and no class wil be in session. There will be no bulletin next week.
On Wednesday, June 8th, 2022, the Associated Student Body (ASB) is hosting a dance. It is a dance to celebrate our students' accomplishments. They have reached the milestone to participate in the promotion celebration during such a difficult last two years. We appreciate our ASB teacher advisor, Mr. Arthur; thank you!
Attentively,
Mrs. Melgoza-Vasquez
School Principal

Summer Opportunities at the Library
There’s so much to see, so much to do at the library! It is one of the best places to take kids, especially during the summer months when children are out of school. The library is a place to learn, read, and have fun…a place the entire family can enjoy. The amount of time children spend reading outside of school is linked to improvements in reading achievement. Many studies show that access to books and other reading materials is directly related to higher reading achievement.
Themed events include bi-weekly STEAM Kits and challenges, participation in the library’s online reading and activity log (register at vencolibrary.beanstack.org), themed Storytimes, and a closing party hosted by Kona Ice. This year Ventura County Library is giving away 13 Nintendo Switch Grand Prizes as well as smaller STEAM prizes, including musical instruments, throughout the summer. In addition, once a child has logged 500 minutes, they may visit their local branch to choose a free new book to add to their home libraries.
Registration continues through August 14, 2022. To learn more about the summer reading adventure at the library, please check out the library’s website at vencolibrary.org.
