What's Happening, La Cima! Apr 2021
"We are not here to be average, we are here to be amazing!"
HOLD THE DATE: 8th Grade Promotion May 20th (Time and Place to be determined)
We are excited that we will be able to plan some type of a promotion ceremony this year for our 8th graders. It will look different than in the past - probably outside with limited invited guests to allow social distancing. If it is outside the start time will be between 7:00 and 7:30 a.m. to avoid the heat of the day.

LA CIMA'S STRATEGIC PLAN AND COMPREHENSIVE NEEDS ASSESSMENT
1. La Cima will ensure faculty and students use collaboration to create a consensus
understanding of high academic expectations through systematic support, data,
scheduling, and intentionality.
2. La Cima will create and implement intentional systems to routinely identify gaps and
continually monitor the alignment of curriculum, standards, instruction, and assessment to increase student academic success regardless of model of instructional delivery.
3. La Cima will intentionally encourage and increase student choice and voice to positively
impact mutual respect among leadership and all stakeholders.
If you would like more details on the process or the plan to accomplish these goals, please contact me at jvalenzuela@amphi.com or 696-6742. Thank you to all members of our team for your hard work and dedication to our students.
