February 2026 Newsletter
Safe, On-Task, Accountable, Respectful
From Dr. Cardenas, Principal
Dear Evergreen Families,
What a month January was! Our second graders had a blast on their field trip, we came together for our spirit assembly, student action teams are up and running, and Kindness Week was absolutely wonderful. There was so much happening that it's hard to list it all!
February is shaping up to be just as busy. We've got Valentine's Day Grams coming up, the Father-Daughter Dance, our Poetry Festival, and a schoolwide field trip to DBHS, plus more.
Make sure to read through the whole newsletter so you don't miss anything. There's a lot going on and we want to keep you in the loop!
Dr. Cardenas, Principal

Kindness Week: Our Leaders Shine Bright! 🌟
Kindness Week: Our Leaders Shine Bright! 🌟
Our school community soared to new heights during Kindness Week as students and staff embraced the power of compassion and care! From "Kindness is Golden" on Day 1 to "Fill Your Plate with Kindness" food-themed fun on Day 2, our leaders filled the halls with positivity. Day 3 brought adorable Sanrio friends reminding us that kindness is sweet, while Day 4 showcased our student superheroes proving that kindness is the greatest superpower of all. We wrapped up the week warm and cozy on Day 5, celebrating how kindness comforts and connects us. Throughout the week, students demonstrated exceptional Self-Discipline, Ownership, Attitude, and Respect—our S.O.A.R. values in action. The creative costumes, heartfelt acts of service, and genuine care shown by our students proved that when we lead with kindness, everyone wins. We're incredibly proud of how our Leader in Me community came together to make our school a brighter, kinder place!
Evergreen Spirit Shines at Monthly Assembly!
Our monthly spirit assembly was filled with celebration, recognition, and plenty of Evergreen pride! We honored many of our outstanding student leaders for their incredible accomplishments throughout the past month.
Highlights included:
- Recognition of our January S.O.A.R. Award recipients who exemplify what it means to be Safe, On-Task, Accountable, and Respectful
- Sharing our new schoolwide Wildly Important Goal (W.I.G.)
The energy reached new heights during our Stomp Rocket Competition! Several students and staff competed to see who could make the rocket go higher. It was such a fun time cheering and celebrating our students and staff as they launched their rockets skyward!
It was a wonderful event that truly showcased the Evergreen Spirit. Thank you to all our students, staff, and families for making our school community so special!
2nd Grade Leaders head to the Pomona Fairplex Farm
Evergreen 2nd grade leaders went on an exciting field trip to the Pomona Fairplex Farm, where they explored nature through hands-on learning. They planted onions and took home their own plants and vegetables. The students also learned about farm animals and helpful insects, like bees, and discovered why they are so important. It was a fun and meaningful experience that helped them better understand where food comes from.
