ESSA Replaces NCLB

On December 10, 2015, President Obama signed the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) which replaces "No Child Left Behind" (NCLB). The new law reduces the role of the federal government in educational policy and gives more control to states and local school districts.

Gabrielino Connects Program
Would you like to inspire students by sharing your professional story?

Gabrielino is launching Gabrielino Connects - where students interview professionals to learn about their careers via classroom video calls.  Last year, employees from Microsoft, a Wall Street Journal reporter, and a professional illustrator shared their career insight and experience with students.  This year, we hope to expand the program.  If you want to share your career story with students and give them a virtual tour of your workplace, please visit www.gabrielinoconnect.com to find out more and to sign up to be a volunteer!

​Dear Gabrielino Families,

Welcome to the 2018-19 school year!

I am so excited to begin my 2nd year as Gabrielino PTSA President.   My two older children are Eagles this year - 9th and 10th grade.   Our first year as a Gabrielino family exceeded all our expectations.  We are so proud to be a part of this exceptional school and community.  I am once again looking forward to working with you, our administrators and teachers, and the dedicated PTSA Board this year!

GHS PTSA has a reputation for being an enthusiastic advocate for our students, families, and our community.  I hope you’ll join me in making this a successful and positive year for everyone!

What does GHS PTSA do?
  • “Parent-to-Parent Coffees” and Parent Education Workshops
  • Weekly Newsletter and Multilingual Informative Website
  • Community Outreach
  • Graduating Senior Scholarships
  • Translation Support for School Events
  • Teacher & Staff Appreciation Celebrations
  • And much more…

Why should you join GHS PTSA?
  • Your annual $10 membership fee helps support our programs.
  • You NEVER have to attend a meeting or volunteer!
  • However, we strongly encourage you to get involved! Our meetings are the first Wednesday of every month at 7pm in the GHS Library. We’d love to have you join us!
  • “BE IN THE KNOW” – Our weekly email will keep you informed about what’s happening on campus, schedule reminders, important due dates, and everything else your teenager may forget to tell you!
  • Becoming a member shows your child that you support him/her and their school.

In addition to your membership, we hope you’ll consider making a monetary donation.  100% of your donation directly benefits our students and is fully tax deductible. If you donate $25 or more, you’ll receive a “Proud Supporter of Gabrielino High School” lawn sign as a thank you.  Let’s all show our Eagle pride and display them proudly! Our membership/donation form is available here or on our website: gabrielinoptsa.org. Forms can be dropped off or mailed to the school office.   

Mark your calendars for our PTSA New Parent Coffee on Wed., Sept. 5th at 7pm in the Media Center.  We hope you’ll join us!

If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to contact me.

Go Eagles!
