A MESSAGE FROM OUR INTERIM PRINCIPAL, MS FIELDS
Dear El Marino Families,
It was wonderful to see so many of you at Back to School Night.
I will be here as Interim Principal for a few more weeks until the permanent Principal is ready to begin. I am here most mornings, and other times as needed. Please feel free to email me if you have questions or concerns.
We had a smooth opening of school. As I visit classrooms, I see students listening, speaking, reading and writing in both languages. Teachers are learning about each student's abilities in order for them to plan appropriately.
We welcomed two new teachers, Maestra Nicodemus in Second Grade and Maestra Melchor in Fifth Grade. Also, Maestra Erika Espinoza is taking on a leadership opportunity as coordinator for the ELPAC testing for our school. Maestra Ayin Orozco will be in the classroom until Maestra Espinoza returns.
I truly believe in Dual Language Education. Thank you for your support.
Sincerely,
Sara Fields
Interim Principal

You can sign up students, family members, and friends as PTA Members and if you can provide a direct donation to El Marino PTA those proceeds go directly to our PTA unit to support our school community.

El MARINO GREEN GARDEN IS SEEKING VOLUNTEERS!
Do you have a green thumb?
Do you have a different colored thumb that you wish were greener?
Do you care about nutrition, love vegetables, love composting, love rolling around in the dirt or just love helping out on campus?
THE GARDEN IS A WONDERFUL WAY TO BE INVOLVED IN THE
EL MARINO COMMUNITY!
We plant, maintain and harvest our 7-bed organic garden alongside the entire student body. We host lessons and tastings that require a 9am-12pm commitment once a month. We also love volunteers who can weed and plant before or after school hours. Plus, we do a big clean up and prep twice a year on weekends as well. So, volunteering with us works for all kinds of schedules.
Come when you can! The garden is entirely parent run and we need you!l.
To volunteer, please email doriendavies@gmail.com.
We can’t wait to show you what we grow this year!
GREEN COMMITTEE: PLEDGE TO CLEAN AIR
Let's get the new year started off right and commit to not idling our cars during drop-off and pick-up.
The 405 is the busiest freeway in America, let's do everything we can to limit air pollution at our school.
Check your email, text your coworker, set your map THEN turn on your car and away you go!
Our Green Committee works with parents and students on Clean Air, Reducing Waste, Going Plastic-Free and Respecting our Environment.
The average El Marino student will live to see the year 2100! Let's prepare them for a sustainable life-style.
