SCHOOL OF MEDICINE & BIOTECHNOLOGY NEWSLETTER #1
August 2021
Dear Team Biomed,
Welcome to the 2021-2022 academic school year! I am ecstatic to work and to serve along your side as an Administrator for the School of Medicine and Biotechnology. I am a product of LBUSD and UCLA Bruin alumnae. I am a former secondary Mathematics Teacher, Badminton Coach, High School Activities Director, and Middle School Assistant Principal. I believe it is my role as an educator to create and support opportunities of growth and learning for all students. I believe all stakeholders play an essential role in contributing to this growth; thus, I am looking forward to working with you--to support each other--to better serve all of our students' diverse needs.
Our pathway team of teachers, Mrs. Lawrence (Pathway Lead Teacher), Mrs. Bilvado (Counselor), and I are looking forward to getting to know you, your strengths, and your aspirations this school year. As a team, we believe in every single student's success; we will do what we can to create the best conditions to support our students.
In order to ensure that we can quickly support you and update you on communication, please keep in mind the following:
- Check Canvas frequently. Our teachers will use Canvas to communicate about assignments, grades, and student success. It’s important that every parent/guardian has a Canvas account so that you can easily communicate with your student’s teacher.
- Update phone, home and email address information in ParentVUE. Messaging is sent via phone and email from the school and district.
- Wear the proper uniform every day (on-campus). Details about the uniform policy can be found on our website, under Student Resources > Policies and Procedures >> Dress Code.
- Follow us on on Instagram: 1) @LBWilsonHigh 2) @whs_schoolofbiomed
- Get involved! There are many clubs for students to join and families can participate through PTSA, ELAC, Site Based Decision Making Committee, School Site Council, and more. Follow @woodyatlbwilson on Instagram & @woodyatlbwilson on Twitter.
As your Pathway team, we are here to serve as a resource for you; please do not hesitate to contact us for support. I am eager to see how our Bruin scholars will continue to make Wilson High School and our community a better place!
We look forward to all that is to come this year! See you on August 31st!
Much Bruin love,
Ms. Nguyen ("win")
