November 2023 Updates

This article was last modified on November 29th, 2023.

Dear ICA Families,

Welcome to November!  Our students are working very hard and doing a great job in their classes and meeting with their teachers.  November is a short month so please talk to your children about keeping current in their classes and finishing strong.  When we return from Thanksgiving Break there are only 18 days left until semester I is over.  Your child’s Advisory teacher has set up a parent/student/teacher conference to talk about your child’s progress and give you their first quarter report cards, but please feel free to get in touch with your child’s teacher anytime, we are here to make sure every student succeeds.

Our School Site Council has begun meeting and planning for a great experience for all ICA students. We have several ICA students taking college classes in a few California Community Colleges and all are doing a fantastic job!

Please contact our office if you have any questions or need additional information 760-952-1760.

Have a memorable Thanksgiving holiday!

Sincerely,
Dr. Esposito
