Chaminade Admissions News

October issue, 2019

Dear Prospective Chaminade Family, On August 14, 2019, we welcomed 690 middle school students on our campus with open arms, and it has been a non-stop journey ever since! Our returning students have adjusted back to life at Chaminade, and our newest community members are becoming quite adept at opening their lockers, navigating the block schedule, and acclimating to life at their school! In our first month, students have participated in their Back to School Rally, Service Saturday, and 6th grade retreat. They also attended informative assemblies that have been both fun and educational! We hope you enjoy this edition of Admissions News and look forward to seeing you soon! Sincerely, Mary Guerra and Annikki Lotta The Chaminade Admissions Team

Chaminade Family Spirit at its Best In true Chaminade fashion, the Back to School Rally was full of spirit and excitement. Our new and returning students enjoyed celebrating the start to the year, and cheering on both their House and their school!

6th Grade Students Growing in Faith Sixth grade students celebrated their first faith retreat themed Imago Dei , which means "Image of God." Our newest community members reflected on their gifts and talents and what makes them special. They learned about their new classmates, and themselves, through small group discussions, icebreakers, and other activities. Social Media Manners Matter Kim Karr, leading motivational speaker and co-founder of the organization #icanhelp, provided an interactive assembly focused on social media issues to Chaminade students on September 25. Students were challenged to think about their social media habits and the type of digital legacy they are creating.

Empowered to Give Back! Members of our student body and their parents traveled into the local community on "Service Saturday" and applied their talents to a nonprofit organization of their choice, such as the West Valley Boys and Girls Club, Ride On Therapeutic Horsemanship, and San Fernando Valley Rescue Mission. Sixth Grade Students, Luke Beausang and Jared Prince, raised their shovels as they took a break from their hard work at Tree People in Santa Clarita. They learned to properly water and care for plants in order to help renew the landscape in the Angeles National Forest. They also learned how to be respectful of plants and animals in our national forests.

Faculty Spotlight This month we highlight the work of our beloved Campus Minister, Kate Beskid. Mrs. Beskid works tirelessly to give students opportunities to grow as individuals. She facilitated the "Service Saturday" event and our 6th Grade Retreat. Mrs. Beskid is a true Marianist educator, who inspires students to love, learn and lead through her ministry.
