Expressions of Gratitude
Similar to last year, we are providing staff with the opportunity to thank individuals on campus who have a positive impact on our lives. To that end, we will have blank thank you cards available in the staff lounge starting on Monday. Simply grab a couple and fill them out. Drop the card(s) in one of the baskets in the staff lounge by Wednesday morning, when you pick up your coffee. We will hand-deliver the cards after nutrition. Thanks!
Congratulations to Arroyo Seco's Cross Country Team
Congratulations to our Cross Country team, who competed against all of the junior high schools in the district yesterday. Some highlights: Seco's 7th grade girls took 3rd place, 8th grade girls took 3rd place, and 8th grade boys took 2nd! Aaron Cantu placed 2nd overall for 8th grade boys and Ryan Vasquez took 2nd overall for 8th grade girls. Congratulations to all of our students who participated and a big thank you to all of our PE teachers for coaching them up!
