This is our student leadership group led by Mrs. Chris.  Students are elected to represent their class at Student Council meetings.  Officers are elected from the classroom representatives.  Student Council members help plan and disseminate information to their classes about school events and activities.  Officers help make our daily morning announcements.  Our Student Council members provide service to our school and learn important leadership skills.  

Intervention Programs
We carefully monitor the progress of all our students.  Based on assessment data, teacher input, and Intensive Intervention Learning Plans (IILPs), students are invited to participate in programs that provide additional instruction and targeted help in the area of reading and math.  We offer an after school Kindergarten program that develops beginning reading and math skills.  We offer a one-on-one tutorial for first graders who are working below grade level to develop reading fluency.  We also offer an after school reading and math support program for gr. 2-5, in which students receive additional computer assisted practice at their instructional level.  We also have a Homework Club that meets twice a week.  Students get homework assistance from tutors from Glendale High School’s Global Mindset Club.  If you have any questions, please contact Ms. Tam.

After School Sports Programs
In collaboration with the Glendale Parks and Recreation Department, we are participating in an after school sports program for grades 4-5.   This program allows selected students to participate in an organized sports program with practice three times a week and a game once a week with another GUSD elementary school.  Students, who are selected to participate, must continue to show strong effort in their school work and progress meeting academic goals.  This year, we participated in flag football, soccer, basketball, and volleyball.
