First (Annual?) Mesa Overnight Campout
Principal’s Message
Hello Mesa Families,
We started this week with an excellent performance by our junior high boys basketball team, a group of hard working young men (and young lady) that are able to balance their academic and their sports commitments. The boys team played in the championship game last Tuesday night, cheered on by their moms and dads and supporters. In the end their hard work garnered them a second place win overall for the season. Great work, boys (and girl)! Great work, Coach Efren Gavia! Great work, parents and supporters! Go Tigers!
This past Friday, we had our annual PFO Jog-a-Thon event, and it was a beautiful day for it. Most everyone in the school participated in some way and the Mesa Tiger spirit was high! Thank you to the many, many moms and dads that came out to support their youngsters. Thank you to Mrs. Richelle Solis, who coordinated all the moving pieces for the event and planned a wonderful day of fitness and comradery for all the students. And parents, your generous donations to the Jog-a-Thon resulted in topping our goal of $30,000, with realized donations of $36,000. You are all unbelievably generous and kind to the Mesa community. There are three Mesa students that deserve special recognition: 4th grader Evan Fanner sang the National Anthem beautifully solo. His voice and delivery was perfect and reminiscent what we would hear at minor league baseball game… great work Evan, I’m proud of you! And for the junior high National Anthem, we were delighted and impressed with a ukulele-accompanied rendition by 8th graders Charlotte Weymer and Stephanie Zager. What a treat it was…great work girls, I’m proud of you both!
This Tuesday morning at 8:30am, we will have our monthly Coffee with the Superintendent and Principal. On the agenda is a discussion of the 2017-2018 school calendar, including the drop off and pick up times, as well as other timely updates. I hope to see you there. Thanks in advance to our wonderful PFO for sponsoring Noah’s bagels and shmear and coffee for this event.
And finally, I hope you will consider participating in the annual Mesa Education Foundation’s golf tournament happening on Friday, June 2nd. See the attached flyer. What an opportunity to golf with Superintendent Turner and Principal Bluestein and a lot of Mesa parents!

Primera Campamento de Mesa (anual?)
Mensaje del Director Hola Mesa Familias,
Comenzamos esta semana con un excelente desempeño por parte de nuestro equipo de baloncesto juvenil, un grupo de jóvenes que trabajan duro (y jovencita) que son capaces de equilibrar sus compromisos académicos y deportivos. El equipo de los muchachos jugó en el juego del campeonato la noche del martes pasado, aplaudido encendido por sus mamáes y papás y partidarios. Al final, su duro trabajo les dio una segunda victoria en la general. Gran trabajo, chicos (y chica)! Gran trabajo, el entrenador Efren Gavia! ¡Gran trabajo, padres y partidarios! ¡Vayan tigres!
El pasado viernes, tuvimos nuestro evento anual de Jog-a-Thon de PFO, y fue un día hermoso para él. La mayoría de todos en la escuela participó de alguna manera y el espíritu de Tigre de Mesa era alto! Gracias a las muchas, muchas mamás y papás que salieron a apoyar a sus hijos. Gracias a la Sra. Richelle Solis, quien coordinó todas las piezas en movimiento para el evento y planeó un maravilloso día de aptitud y camaradería para todos los estudiantes. Y los padres, sus donaciones generosas al Jog-a-Thon resultaron en encabezar nuestra meta de $30,000, con donaciones realizadas de $36,000. Todos ustedes son increíblemente generosos y amables con la comunidad de Mesa. Hay tres estudiantes de Mesa que merecen un reconocimiento especial: el 4º grado Evan Fanner cantó el Himno Nacional bellamente solo. Su voz y entrega fue perfecta y recuerda lo que podríamos escuchar en el juego de béisbol de la liga menor ... gran trabajo Evan, estoy orgulloso de ti! Y para el himno nacional junior, estuvimos encantados e impresionados con una interpretación acompañada por ukulele de los alumnos de 8vo grado Charlotte Weymer y Stephanie Zager. ¡Qué delicia fue ... grandes chicas de trabajo, estoy orgullosa de ustedes dos!
Este martes por la mañana a las 8:30 am, tendremos nuestro café mensual con el Superintendente y Principal. En el orden del día está una discusión del calendario escolar 2017-2018, incluyendo los tiempos de entrega y recogida, así como otras actualizaciones oportunas. Espero verte allí. Gracias de antemano a nuestro maravilloso PFO para el patrocinio de los bagels de Noé y shmear y café para este evento.
Y por último, espero que considere la posibilidad de participar en el torneo anual de golf de la Mesa Education Foundation el viernes, 2 de junio. Vea el folleto adjunto. ¡Qué oportunidad de jugar con el Superintendente Turner y el Director Bluestein y muchos padres de Mesa!

Parenting Your Gifted ChildSENG: Supporting the Emotional Needs of the Gifted
SENG Model Parent Discussion GroupMeetings will be on Thursday mornings from 8:30- 10:00am
March 23, March 30, April 6Mesa Union School Room 3
3901 N. Mesa School Rd. Somis, CA 93066
Many of our children have gifts, but not all students are formally identified as gifted. Some have asynchronous development: profound strengths mixed with neuro-typical, or delayed abilities
creating a confusing profile. SENG groups offer parents an opportunity to share ideas, strategies and support in a relaxed setting, guided by SENG-trained facilitators. We emphasize positive
parenting, avoiding power struggles, developing life skills, and enhancing relationships.
Our topics follow the chapters of A Parent’s Guide to Gifted Children by James Webb (Available at Amazon http://a.co/cPwkJiH )
We will use each session to focus on the following chapters:� March 23- Communication: They Key to Relationships
� March 30- Motivation, Enthusiasm and Underachievement
� April 6- Establishing Discipline and Teaching Self Management
Please contact Michele Waggoner: [email protected] for more information and to register.
$5 per session donation is suggested, plus the cost of the text, A Parent’s Guide to Gifted Children.
Facilitator: Cindy Hansen M.Ed., ET/P “My passion for serving the twice exceptional community and gifted students began with my two very different children who became my first students and mentors.” Cindy Hansen has been a SENG Model Parent Group Facilitator since 2011. She is the Parent Representative for the Pacific Region of the California Association for the Gifted and an active member in the region’s Tri-County GATE Council as well as her professional certifying organization, the Association of Educational Therapists. Ms. Hansen’s Masters of Education and three teaching certificates were earned at UCLA and she did her post-masters certificate in Gifted and Talented Education at UCSB. As an Educational Therapist/Professional in private practice, Ms Hansen integrates her understanding of social-emotional skills while assisting learners and their families to embrace and grow their complex learning profiles. www.CynthiaZHansen.com
