Lunchtime Intermural Sports
Our 2025 lunchtime 4x4 basketball season is underway. We have 10 Comp teams, five Rec teams, two teacher/staff teams, and one Ladies team. Each team is guaranteed three games of half-court action. The top teams will make the playoffs. The championship teams in each division earn a pizza party and t-shirts. Games are played in the Large Gym at lunch and are becoming quite the place to be and to build up and show our El Camino Eagle Spirit!

College & Career Readiness
El Camino is dedicated to preparing all students to be confident and successful community members. With this in mind, we have committed to helping our students graduate College & Career Ready. One way that students can demonstrate College & Career Readiness is to earn a score of 3 or higher on both the CAASPP ELA and math assessments. CAASPP testing begins on Monday, March 31, and concludes on Wednesday, April 2. All students who achieve College & Career Readiness status will be recognized at graduation with an honor cord and a special seal on their diploma. For more information on College & Career Readiness at El Camino, please read the Principal's Message linked here.
Artist of the Month
The artist of the week is Ashley Perdue. Ashley is in Ms. McDonald's 2nd period Advanced Drawing and Painting class and is in 10th grade. This is one of 10 prints that she completed for our Reduction Linocut project. Reduction linocut is a technique for achieving multiple colors in a single print while only using one block. You carve one layer, print it across your edition, carve some more, print again on the same pages, and repeat as needed. The title of her piece is "Spirals".
Artist Statement:
"I created the piece "Spirals" not only because I like spirals and swirls; but to represent the twists and turns of life. Our existence isn't made up of a straight line, though sometimes it feels like it. The spiral is spiritually known as the symbol of constant change and represents the act of growth and evolution. Everyone is in a constant pattern of becoming who they are in the present - and that is life itself."
Summer School Sign Ups NOW Available
