We are One Hart, with our goal to make Every Student...Opportunity Ready!

Don't forget that this Sunday is Daylight Savings Time! Enjoy your extra hour of sleep as you set your clocks back 1 hour!

Please be mindful of our Drop off and Pick up routines as we are seeing an uptick in families choosing to drop off in the "No Stopping" area next to our Tennis Courts. There is a reason this is a no stopping area as it creates a traffic problem for vehicles leaving our campus to merge and also for the city busses that need access to pull to the curb. Please help us as it sends a message that school rules do not apply if you choose not to adhere to this request, and I know we do not want to send that message to out students.

We have had a great week of learning at La Mesa and I hope your students are taking advantage of our Tutorial time to request additional time with the classes needed. Our Progress Report Grading period ends on November 10 and it is a great time to try and get caught up on any missing work as your student gets ready for the final 5 weeks of the semester!

Kullen Welch - Principal

The counseling department will host a college field trip for 8th graders on Tuesday, November 15. We will be visiting UC Santa Barbara, where we will be taking a walking tour of the campus, having lunch, and then heading home. Students will need to bring lunch from home or money to buy food from the food court. We plan to leave at 8:45 and return by 3:30. Space for the field trip is limited as we can only take thirty 8th-grade students on a first-come, first-serve basis.

If you are interested in having your student attend please tell them to see Ms. Senen and Mr. Atkins in room 471 at lunch on Monday. Students must attend the meeting to be considered for the field trip and will get more information, including a permission slip to bring home for signatures. They should return their signed permission slips to Ms. Martin in the front office. We will notify parents and students who are able to attend the trip, and everyone else will be placed on a waitlist.

Parent Volunteers Needed: Career Speakers Series

Parents and Guardians! Would you like to share your passion for your profession with our students? We are seeking volunteers who can share about their career, a "day in the life" on the job, and answer student questions during our Tutorial sessions on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
