PTA Meeting This Week

In Heritage Hall - use the door off 15th St between counseling and the library.
Join us for
Coffee and treats
School update from Mr. Vossen and his team
What will PTA look like in 2013-14 - what information and programs would YOU like to see?
PTA is every parent's opportunity to stay connected to their child's school during the high school years. We no longer work in the class room or chat during flag deck. Better yet we don't sell gift wrap or cookies, but rather we try to help parents gain a better understanding of campus activities, school district issues and current teenage trends - both the good and the more challenging. We hope you will share with us how we can support you.

Wonderful work to the Home Tour Artist:
Intro to the Home Tour:
We are so thankful to all the homeowners who open up their homes for the Newport Harbor Home and Garden Tour. To show our appreciation to them, they are given a beautiful rendering of the exterior of their home done by one of the talented art students at Newport Harbor High School. This artwork is often treasured by the homeowners and proudly displayed in the homes featured on the home tour. Be sure to look for these unique art pieces when you tour the homes this year.
Art teacher, Alesandra Esquivel:
"I am very proud of my students who participated in the Home Tour assignment! The Home Tour assignment is a great way for the advance students to continue their progression with utilizing their artistic skills. This project also offers an opportunity for the students to possibly try something they have never done before. The Home Tours assignment is designed to help students create an original artwork, along with sharing their talents with the Home owners and the school. Students work from photo references and may chose any art medium they would like to work with. This allows all students to add that creative freedom with the material and adds a variety throughout the project. It's a wonderful experience to watch and guide these artists produce this original artwork using their style and talents."
Wonderful work to the Home Tour Artist:

Absence Phone Line:
When your student is absent, please report it.
Call (949) 515-6305
Just a reminder that no student will be released from school over the telephone and no early dismissals will be issued over the telephone. The parent/guardian should send their student to school with a note to obtain an Off Campus Permit. The student needs to give their note to Attendance before school or at break.
In the event of an emergency, a parent/guardian must come into the Attendance Office and sign the student out of school. The Attendance Office will not telephone classrooms to have students excused from school out of respect for instructional time.
If a student becomes ill while at school, the student should not call their parent. They should instead go to the nurse's office. The nurse will call home for the student.
Thank you to all Newport Harbor parents and students for your understanding and your cooperation.
