Good evening families, I am in Camarillo, California this weekend celebrating my oldest's graduation from California State University Channel Islands with a degree in Psychology, His journey through college took awhile as he found his way and he now works with students who have autism in their homes and at school. He has such a passion for working with young people that learn in a different way and he reminds me of why we are so lucky at Arete to have staff and families that celebrate all kiddos wherever they are and still have high expectations of what they can achieve in their life with support, Congrats to the Bethancourt boys for representing Arete at the Chess Tournament and scoring 3rd (Jackie) and 17th (Jessie). This past week we had Guest Chef with Sierra Harvest. Their comments about our kids were: Paul- "We had a great time. The kids were all so enthusiastic!" Hiroko- "I loved to listen to the teachers start teaching kids, "where does chimichurri sauce come from, which country? Where is that etc..after Guest chef class! Made me really smile. Thank you so much for having amazing well attended students." |

Arete 8th Grade End of Year Activities 2026Hello 8th grade families! The end of the year is quickly approaching. We need your help to end the year in style for our kids. Please sign up to help bring items to the 8th grade breakfast and graduation. The breakfast will take place on May 28th and is only for 8th grade students. We have some students who are dairy free, gluten free, and vegetarian so we are asking for a variety of items to make this an enjoyable breakfast for everyone. Please deliver it early to campus so we can have time to set up and serve the kids at 9. Students participating in the promotion ceremony will have the opportunity to decorate graduation caps. Please sign up and provide students with caps and items to decorate it with. The 8th grade students have voted on the theme Starry Night for their promotion ceremony. Please sign up to provide the decorations to help bring their theme alive. Any and all help is appreciated to set up the ceremony. Set up will begin at 10 am on 6/10. |
