My story
I chose a football as my item for a story. I did it because it always brings me many fond memories of my childhood. As I grew older¸ one day I realized how important this football was. It was able to judge men! It told me I wasn’t good enough or strong enough¸ it told me that I wasn’t as good as my peers¸ it was my own judge. This all changed on my freshmen year in High School¸ I learned there that is not natural skill or talent that made you better at the game¸ but it was something different: the effort you are willing to give. Picking up a football means your willing to put in an effort! So here I am at Serra putting my effort in books¸ hoping to play in College¸ or better. I’ve learned who you’ve been isn’t who you have to be.

Serra gives back
Serra is always trying to find ways to give back to the community¸ in that endeavor one of our teachers really shines: Mrs. Reynard¸ our Art and ASB teacher¸ is always trying to find ways to help the community and the school. This time ASB – led my Mrs. Reynard - organized a fundraiser to help the American Heart and Stroke Association¸ this event was very successful and we were able to give an important donation to the associations aforementioned to help them in the research for cardiovascular problems. Thank you for your participation!
Principal's message
The days have become longer and our goal of ongoing improvement is a reality. We recently were visited for three days by the WASC Visiting Committee, which has the responsibility of reviewing our Accreditation application. Yes, Serra is an Accredited High School program! As such, the message to students and parents is that “Serra offers a standards-based instructional program. A program where students can, and do, have an expectation that they will receive a quality education. Further, the school offers support for students to ensure student learning.”
Our WASC Visit was sensational. The Visiting Committee was very enthusiastic about our entire program. We anticipate an excellent recommendation being forwarded to the WASC Commission Board in June. And while this assessment process was and is tremendously important, the foundation of what makes up our daily work is MOST important. And that work, is to provide valued instruction to students that may have gotten sidetracked, to help “keep them in the game.”
We appreciate and respect the trust placed in as “ the small High School with the BIG heart.”
Best,
Rich Bellante, Principal
Saddleback Senior Day Field Trip
Next week our Seniors will go on a field trip to Saddleback College for its Senior Day. This is a very important event¸ students are given the chance to know more about college programs¸ college life¸ and even sign up for early bird registrations to Saddleback College. Serra is committed to provide all the available resources for our students to continue their education after graduating high school. Thank you.
Blood Drive 01/24
Every year Serra helps the American Red Cross by hosting blood drives in the School! Yesterday we had our second Blood Drive of the year and we want to thank Serra staff and students for supporting Serra's efforts to give back to the community. We had a very successful blood drive and will be posting the result very soon. Special thanks to Serra's parents and to the members of San Juan Capistrano's community for coming to our school campus and donate blood.

Important Parent Portal Registration Information- sign- up by June 22!!
Dear Parents:
The CUSD Parent Portal is now available for parents of all current K-12 students. We strongly encourage you to register for a Parent Portal account before school offices close in June, so you are able to take advantage of the new online re-registration system for the 2012-13 school year. When the window opens in August, parents with portal accounts will have the ability to use this online system for re-registration, rather than completing the large, traditional paper packet. Parents will also have the ability at any time during the year to update student demographic and emergency contact records, view real-time daily attendance reports, print report cards and transcripts and also be able to download important documents directly from the portal.
Letters were mailed home the week of February 13 to parents of secondary students with specific information related to Parent Portal account creation. Parents of elementary students received their letters during parent conferences. The information in the letter includes your student’s ID, home phone, and a unique verification code which will be needed during the portal registration process. Using the information from the letter, simply logon to abi.capousd.org where you will find directions and a link for creating your Parent Portal account. There is also a portal link on each school’s homepage. A HELP link is available at abi.capousd.org if you have questions during the registration process. If you have lost your letter, please contact your school office before the last day of school.
