Dear Citron Parents,

I find it unbelievable that it is the end of another school year.  It has been a pleasure serving as your Director and I look forward to the 2011/12 school year as we continue our journey together.  I wish all of our students transferring to other campuses and schools all the success and happiness in the world.  Each year the students and staff bond as a family and it is sad to see them leave.  We are proud of what they have learned this year and always relish the opportunity to celebrate their accomplishments. 

We have had parents who have spent endless time and energy in support of the students and the school.  We thank them from the bottom of our hearts.  We have teachers and staff whose commitment has gone beyond the bounds of what is expected and to them goes a debt of gratitude.

Finally I wish everyone a very happy and relaxing summer.  Enjoy the vacation with your families and those traveling overseas, have a safe trip and a speedy return.  I am looking forward to seeing all those students enrolled in summer school and camp.  We are going to have a good time.

Thanks for another wonderful year!

Students joined together in a campus spirit event to support the Red Cross of America on Wednesday, June 8th. All students participated in an obstacle course event that entailed jumping over hurdles, going down the slide, and walking across a balance beam. 

Our campus raised $1,500 in donations for the Red Cross! We are so thankful for our Fairmont family and friends who supported the students and this worthy cause.

Kindergarten students will travel to the Fairmont Prep Campus for graduation rehearsal on Wednesday, June 15th. Students will depart at 1:00pm and return at 2:30pm. 

Kindergarten graduation will be Thursday, June 16th at 2:00pm. It will be held at the Fairmont Prep located at 2200 W. Sequoia Ave, Anaheim. The students will have a regular morning that day. School will begin at 8:25am and they will have lunch at 11:30am. 

The kindergarteners will leave Citron on the bus at 1:00pm. Parents must pick up their child after the graduation ceremony at the Prep. Parents are required to sign-out their graduate with their teacher before they leave the Prep. 

This is not a free dress day. Boys must wear their white polo shirts and navy blue pants. Girls must wear their white blouse with jumper. Caps and gowns will be kept on campus and placed on the students once they arrive at the Prep.

Please do not arrive to the Prep before 1:00pm. Many high school students are still testing. You will not be allowed in the gym before this time. Tickets are not required for the ceremony; however, space is limited and we ask that guests be limited to 6 people per graduate.  Seating will be on a first come first serve basis.

If you have any questions you may contact Mrs. Elly Santamaria at 714-533-3930.

On Tuesday June 7th parents, teachers, and administrators were invited to our annual 5th grade State Fair.  Students from Mable's fifth grade classes created model representations of the states on which they wrote their reports.  Each state was uniquely created by individual students using various methods to construct the models.  Some methods included paper mache, clay, cakes, Jell-o, and rice krispies. The models were beautifully displayed and shared in the cafeteria for all Fairmont students to see. 

Nathalie Song painted New Hampshire on canvas, and Rick Yun used his chopsticks as his medium to represent Montana.  Samantha Tan and Kayla Shikina made their states look "sweet".  These were just a few of them, but there were so many wonderful and creative models.  All of our 5th grade students worked really hard on their models, and they all turned out fantastic.  We would like to thank our teachers, parents, staff, and administrators for coming to support our 5th graders.
