Andres won the Jugga M&Ms with a guess of 1750. The actual amount was 1746. Students were able to guess once for every half credit they completed. Andres was very generous and shared his winnings with other GAA students.
Parent Teacher Conferences were a HUGE success with 100% of parents attending. Student success would be greatly hindered without the home support of parents and family. Thank you.

1st Nine Weeks almost complete
Fall Break is almost upon us. This means that 1/4 of the school year is almost complete. GAA students are on an accelerated credit recovery system that requires dedication, motivation and self initiative. These students have to constantly push themselves everyday in order to take advantage of the opportunity to make credit recovery. As we wind down this first quarter, I find myself very proud of all of my students and confident that we will continue to have a Great Year!

The Champion!!!
Juan was hoisted into the air as he won the 1st 9weeks GAA Washer Tournament. Mrs. Sandoval, Coach Justiss, Mr. Acevedo and 31 students competed in a total of 50 matches during a double elimination washer tournament. Matches were played on breaks, before and after school. Juan had never played washers before, but was a natural. Tahhar had gone undefeated the entire tournament until the final match with Juan who had lost one match early in the tournament. Juan bested the consolation bracket coming back to beat Tahhar twice in a row to claim the Championship. Juan won two movie tickets as well as bragging rights.... for the time being.
