Laurels for Leaders is a leadership recognition program that honors individuals who demonstrate exceptional commitment to supporting students, staff, and their communities. The program highlights leaders who make a positive impact through service, collaboration, and dedication to improving educational environments.

Mr. Q's Transition students recently participated in a hands-on, student-structured baking activity: creating custom cake pops. Led by our Community Schools Coordinator, Mrs. Gomez, this session was designed to blend life skills with creative expression in a collaborative environment.

Castle Park High School’s After School Program offers a variety of academic, athletic, cultural, and recreational activities for our students.

These programs provide a safe and engaging space for students to build skills, stay active, and connect with peers after school. Limited spots are available for some activities, so we encourage students to sign up in Room 401.

Castle Park High School was proud to be part of the Sweetwater Union High School District Community Schools Kickoff at Castle Park Middle School.

Alongside Mr. Gonzalez, Ms. Hernandez, and Ms. Gomez, our team had the opportunity to connect with families and share the programs, resources, and support services available at CPH through The Heart of Troy. From academic support to community partnerships, we are committed to uplifting every student and family we serve.

The evening was filled with meaningful conversations, inspiring performances, and a shared vision of what it means to truly support our community.

We are excited and look forward to welcoming our future Trojans to campus soon! ❤️🖤
