Welcome back everyone! The 2010-2011 school year is about to commence. We look forward to formally welcoming new students to Revere at the Orientation Day on Tuesday, August 31. For everyone’s convenience there will be 2 sessions, one in the morning from 9:00-11:30 am; and one in the late afternoon from 4:00-6:30 pm. Everyone is invited to attend 1 of these sessions. Orientation Day gives students and their families an opportunity to “Meet and Greet” with administrators and faculty, learn about school policy and procedures, explore transportation alternatives, sign-up for our parent organizations (PTSA and P.R.I.D.E.) learn about programs and activities available to all students, and review the opening day procedures for new students. This is your chance to ask those important questions, and meet the people on campus who have the knowledge to answer them. Please do your best to attend one of the sessions.
I am very pleased to report that Revere’s Charter document was renewed last year. We are now part of a cohort within the L.A.U.S.D. Charter Office. The Palisades Charter Schools have been working toward this recognition for the past 5 years. The other principals at Marquez, Topanga, Kentor, Canyon, and Palisades Elementary Schools are enthusiastic about the opportunities the affiliated charter cohort can offer Palisades schools.
The new semester starts on Monday, September 13 at 7:55 am. Charter 6th graders report to the auditorium, and magnet 6th graders report to Town Hall. All our staff will dedicate our time in the first weeks of school to assist new students in every way possible. This year we are excited about our renovated foyer for the auditorium, the blossoming vegetable garden, and the newly constructed amphitheater next to the garden; all courtesy of our wonderful dedicated parents, students and community. Enjoy the middle school experience at Revere!
