STUDENT DESIGN CONTEST VOTING TODAY

Thank you to all who submitted designs for the Student Design Contest! All of the submissions were incredible and it was so difficult to choose the final designs for our CSArts-SGV community to vote on. That being said, the time has finally come to vote for your favorite student design to be featured on an apparel item in an upcoming schoolwide sale! Voting will take place TODAY, Friday, March 10, on the @CSArtsSGV Instagram story. Click here or on the image below to cast your vote before the story expires!

HIGH SCHOOL CAASPP TESTING

As communicated yesterday, mandated California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) Assessments will be administered during Testing Week, Monday, April 10 through Thursday, April 13.

In order to be prepared for Testing Week, students should come each day with the following:

• Their own headphones with auxiliary plug-in capability (extras will be available in the classroom if needed)
