VAPA's Weekly Updates for September 17, 2018
Legacy VAPA's Weekly Updates
September 17, 2018
Hello VAPA Community! This is Dr. Trimis with a few announcements. Monday is a late-start day. Students must be at school before 10 am on Monday. This week there is no school on Wednesday. Hola comunidad VAPA! Este es el Dr. Trimis con algunos anuncios. El lunes es un día de inicio tardío. Los estudiantes deben estar en la escuela antes de las diez de la mañana del lunes. Esta semana no hay clases el miércoles.
This is Latino Heritage Month and Suicide Prevention Month. This week we will have a special meeting for parents of seniors on Tuesday at 5 pm in the MPR to discuss graduation and college entrance requirements. We will have an Honor Roll Celebration this Thursday at 6 pm and parents will receive invitations if they have not received them, already
Congratulations to our Legacy Football Team as well as our Girls Tennis and Girls Volleyball Teams who all won their first Eastern League games in the history of Legacy Athletics this week. The upset Friday night against Division 2 CIF City Champions, Huntington Park High School, was incredible. For those of us that are HP alumni or former teachers and staff, we wish HP the best of luck this season as we celebrate with our Legacy family! We are super proud of our teams which include several VAPA students!
We are now in the Zone of Choice and Open Enrollment Recruitment season. Congrats to our VAPA Performance Ambassadors performed at the Orchard Academies last Friday and have several other stops on this year’s Recruitment Tour. If you know of any high school students who are at other high schools that would like to become VAPA students immediately, please have their parent call our office before Friday so we may begin the enrollment process with them. If you know of any families of 8th grade students, especially those that live in the South Gate and Bell area, please refer them to us so we can let them know all we have to offer. We will be giving school tours every Wednesday and Friday for the next 2 months. It’s important to note that VAPA has one of the highest percentages of Gifted and Talented students when compared to other LAUSD schools at 17.5%. The goal for all LAUSD schools is to identify at least 6% of their students as gifted and talented.
Our Latino Heritage Concert on Thursday, September 27 and our next home football game is the Homecoming Game on September 28. The Homecoming Dance will be on Saturday, September 29. Please go to our new website and Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter links at www.vapalegacy.com for more information and updates including a daily live stream of our morning announcements.
That’s it for now. I'll see you at school!
Take Care,
Dr. Edward Trimis, Principal
