Quantum Parent Bulletin #37
May 11, 2026
My mom was pregnant with me when she was a 17-year old senior in high school (yup, that's all 10.8 pounds of me in her belly back in 1974). Mom always told me that having me and my brother was her greatest blessings. I personally think I was her greatest blessing and my brother was the second greatest but he disagrees. 🤣
Mom worked incredibly hard for us and taught us how to always look at the bright side of life and find joy every single day. As a single mom for many years, she was always our biggest fan, showing up at every school and sporting event, even when she had to walk because she didn't have a car. I miss her so much since her passing from cancer nine years ago and would give anything to have the opportunity to celebrate Mother's Day with her again.
I hope that all of you moms were spoiled rotten yesterday and shown all of the love that you deserve! The love and care you show your children is amazing and I hope you know that you are making a huge difference in their lives for years to come!

We have received reports of students being dropped off on Valley Drive and then walking to campus. Out of safety concerns, please refrain from using that location for drop-off as it is a very busy street with cars speeding down and changing lanes frequently. While it may take a few extra minutes to drive into campus, it's worth it to keep our kiddos safe!
CAASPP Testing continues this week and will run through May 15 for all grades. Additionally, our 5th and 8th graders will take a Science CAASPP assessment the week of May 18-22. Testing will take place the first hour of each morning when our students are freshest.
Please be sure that your child arrives to school on time and has a healthy breakfast to start the day and try not to check them out during that first hour.
Please note that students who arrive at school after 8:25 will have to wait in the office until testing concludes at 9:15 as we cannot interrupt classrooms once testing has begun.
To help with our planning for next year, please notify our front office if you are a parent of a current 4th-7th grader who will not be returning to Quantum this fall by calling the office at (760) 432-2220 or email our Office Clerk Aracely Vasquez at avasquez@eusd.org.
