In their annual holiday tradition, students were given the opportunity to make a number of crafts that they could then use as gifts for their friends and family. The "Elf Workshop" was available to students for only $1. They selected from a number of crafts and then worked in groups to assemble the gifts. Along with dozens of volunteers from the school and the community, including Chula Vista City Councilmember Mary Salas, the students made gifts that would have a lasting memory. The event is hosted by Club Teen Connection, under the direction of Sandra Bishop. Congratulations to Club TC on another successful holiday event! www.sweetwaterschools.org JANUARY 2013 SWEETWATER CURRENTS 3 Gingerbread Houses! San Ysidro Adult Showcases Student Talent The confectionary talents of culinary arts students were on display this week in the form of some 30 Gingerbread Houses and several other edible creations. This year, several of the students made houses that reflected holiday traditions from around the world. The edible visions put a twinkle in the eyes of the beholders as they "oohed" and "ahhed" over the tasty creations on display during the 8th annual competition. The public was invited to cast their votes and choose their favorites. Professional chefs and other community members also participated in the judging. San Ysidro Adult School serves adult learners seeking to improve their job and career skills, and those looking to complete their basic education. The annual gingerbread competition has become a holiday favorite in the Sweetwater District and we are already looking forward to what the students have in store for next year! Take a look at the showcase here! www.sweetwaterschools.org JANUARY 2013 SWEETWATER CURRENTS 4 www.sweetwaterschools.org JANUARY 2013 SWEETWATER CURRENTS 5 Renowned Author Charles Fishman Makes Waves of Inspiration Olympian High School Students meet the author of book read by entire Senior Class Charles Fishman, author of The Big Thirst, visited students at Olympian High School to discuss the book’s theme, “The Secret Life and Turbulent Future of Water”.

Bonita Vista Middle & Toys for Tots During the Holiday season, many of our students are working to give back to their communities. Students at Bonita Vista Middle have been working with the Toys for Tots program and recently raised $548 for the program. They earned the money by staying after school 3-4 days a week to open the Student Store for business. Profits from the After School Sales were used to purchase the toys. Well done Crusaders! KUDOS! Melanie Brown-Davis Melanie-Brown-Davis , Science Teacher and District Wide Academic Support team Member, has successfully renewed her title of National Board Certified Teacher.

Over the past few weeks, Sweetwater Student Services have been collecting brown bags full of complete holiday meals. Each bag is donated by a group of people from a department or a school site across Sweetwater District. The initial goal was to collect 115 bags of food, but thanks to the generosity of staff, well over 250 bags were collected. Our SUHSD elves have been working overtime and our teens and families in need will be the beneficiaries. Way to go! www.sweetwaterschools.org JANUARY 2013 SWEETWATER CURRENTS 7 JANUARY 2013 National Hobby Month 1 Happy New Year’s 15 21 28 First Day of School Dr. Martin Luther King Day Board Meeting La Jolla Literacy Society Host Montgomery High Seniors, Meet Award-Winning Author Montgomery High students have been recognized by the La Jolla Literary Society for being enthusiastic, and well-prepared. As a result, Montgomery High students are always invited to the annual kick-off of the La Jolla Literary Society’s Authors Luncheons series. This November, seven Montgomery High School seniors traveled to the La Jolla Country Club to meet and interview award-winning author, Robert K. Massie (Catherine the Great) and enjoy lunch as part of their annual trip to the La Jolla Literary Society’s Authors Luncheons series. MOH students got to interview the author after listening to him address attendees. Following the event, the author chatted with the students again and signed their books. Several weeks before the luncheon, students receive complimentary books from the publisher. Along with their teachers, the students read the book and attend twice-weekly Literature Circles to discuss the book and create questions for the author.

Literacy Nights brought parents, teachers, and students together to celebrate the positive impact that literacy has on our students’ education and academic achievement. At Mar Vista, librarian Mercedes Hernandez organized literacy activities like bilingual story time, a book give away, and Teen Read Week promotions. At Montgomery Middle, librarian Imelda Alvarez worked with teachers and the ASB to coordinate different stations where parents learned about how they can support literacy efforts at home. There were a number of activities in which parents worked alongside their child to learn more about the Accelerated Reader Program, including creating a reading list, and a library scavenger hunt. Sweetwater libraries put the importance of literacy first by inviting families in the community to participate in this special event. KUDOS! Eastlake High School Football Congratulations to Eastlake High School’s football team for winning the Division One CIF Football Championship.

  • In Fiscal Year 2018, Scripps Health Provided $395 Million in Community Benefit Services
    2019 Community Benefit Report Our Promise to the Community In fiscal year 2018, Scripps Health provided $395 million in community benefit services Serving Our Community Scripps is committed to expanding our scope of community benefit through key partnerships with organizations that share our dedication to improving the health and quality of life for San Diegans. From collaborative programs that address obesity and diabetes, to raising awareness about mental illness and teenage alcohol abuse, to free support groups and participation in community health and safety programs, these partnerships are vital to making our community a healthier place. LETTER FROM THE CEO The Scripps story began with a strong commitment to the San Diego community – a commitment that continues today. Our founders, Ellen Browning Scripps and Mother Mary Michael Cummings, were both women ahead of their time. Their commitment to provide for the health care needs of a growing community resulted in the Scripps Health of today. Miss Ellen, as she was known, preferred the term “investment” over “donation”, and her contributions were carefully considered as much for their future promise as for their immediate impact. Decades earlier, Mother Mary Michael’s patient logs illustrated her fundamental mission to make quality health care available to all who needed it. Today, more than 15,000 employees, physicians and volunteers continue to build on our rich history and keep the spirit of community service alive. The pages that follow provide a comprehensive account of how we achieve that: our community benefit programs and services, and our plans for continued action in the future. In Fiscal Year 2018, Scripps’ community benefit contributions totaled $395,361,567.

Local Educational Agency (LEA) Name Contact Name and Title Email and Phone Sweetwater Union High School District Dr. Ana Maria Alvarez [email protected] Assistant Superintendent (619) 691-5546 General Information [A description of the impact the COVID-19 pandemic has had on the LEA and its community.] Set in southern San Diego County, Sweetwater Union High School District spans from the border with Mexico up the Pacific coast to National City and East to the Otay Mountain foothills. As the largest secondary school district in California, we serve our communities, parents, students, and staffs with excellence in teaching and support for our very diverse population of over 38,000 middle and high school students and over 10,000 adult school attendees. Our 2018-19 student enrollment was 39,086. 59% of our students qualify as low income and 19% are identified as English Learners, 63% of our EL students are Long Term English Learners and 615 of our students are Foster Youth or Homeless Youth. The Sweetwater district has felt the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic as has any other school district in California and beyond. Students, families, and staff have been deeply impacted by the pandemic and these tolls have been demonstrated in the physical, emotional, and academic health of of our students and staff. In San Diego County, we are unique in that the zip codes in the Sweetwater district represented 5 of the 6 highest case rates of COVID-19 infections in the County, which has led to increased anxiety and acute sensitivity to inform our decision making process.

    March 14, 2014 To: San Diego County Committee on School District Organization Fr: Douglas Johnson and Justin Levitt Re: Descriptions of NDC Draft Plan 5 Accompanying this memo are demographic spreadsheets and maps of NDC draft plan 4. This brief memo provides the overview and concepts behind the three NDC draft plans. Plan 5 is based on Plan 4. In general, Plan 5: Begins with the same changes to Trustee Areas D and E in Imperial Beach and San Ysidro as were made in Plan 4; Joins in District C the Olympian, Eastlake, and Otay Ranch/Rancho Del Rey areas. These neighborhoods share similar histories and demographics, such as year houses were constructed (all are post-1990 developments) and percentage with advanced degrees. Bonita Vista is linked with Hilltop, while Chula Vista High is connected to National City. This is an attempt at a compromise between the two groups (National City with similar neighborhoods, and historic connection between Bonita, Hilltop, and National High areas) Phone: (818) 254-1221 P.O.
