Seniors Win Spirit Week

Mar. 5, 2010 - El Modena is a very spirited place, and that is never better illustrated than during Spirit Week, a tradition started in the mid 1960’s by El Modena’s first student council.

Over a five-day period (Mar. 1-5) the grades competed for the title of “most spirited.” This year the class themes included “Epic Freshman,” “X,” “Juniors and the Chocolate Factory,” and “Seniors at Sea”. The week-long celebration included the wearing of class t-shirts, games, food, and skits in the Main Quad, as well as campus decorating.

The culminating activity took place on Friday, Mar. 5, when a panel of staff judges determined the winning class. This year’s award of most spirited went to the senior class. Great job, Vanguards!

Test Scores Earn Snow Day

Feb. 23, 2010 - El Modena’s recent CELDT scores are in and our students did a phenomenal job!

Compared to last year’s results, nearly 50% more students gained one or more proficiency levels on this year’s exam.

As a reward for their tremendous efforts, 163 students were given the opportunity to go to Big Bear, Calif., and learn first-hand what a “snow day” is all about.

The fieldtrip included a delicious pancake breakfast provided by our own cafeteria staff and a visit to Alpine Slide at Magic Mountain, where our Vanguards took part in some intense inner tubing. As the pictures attest, a great time was had by all!.
