On Campus Support

Operation Bigs    This school-based mentoring program is a Big Brothers Big Sisters of San Diego County program for children in military families.  Adult volunteers (Bigs) visit with students (Littles) once a week after school and through this friendship, children are provided one-on-one attention and support.

Classroom Volunteers Please see volunteer site for information and levels.

Student to Student Each trimester, students new to the school meet to share what they know and want to know about their new school.

On-Site Counseling  Support groups and one-on-one counseling focus on self-esteem, social skills, anger management, attention skills training, organizational skills, deployment, self-expression, loss and bereavement. Two options are available, one through Tri-Care and another with a counselor funded by the District.

Operation Hero This AFYMCA after school program addresses issues faced by many of our military youth.  Operation Hero meets twice weekly for 2.5 hours for a ten-week session.  Students receive homework assistance in areas prescribed by their classroom teacher.

School Liaison Officer Collaboration In order to keep updated on all resources/services available to our families, deployed and otherwise, we maintain continuous contact with the SLOs under the direction of the commandant.

Student Study Team The SST is a school site team that reviews individual student’s strengths and areas of concern.  The SST plans strategies and organizes resources for addressing these problems.  This process is a function of regular education.
