Message From The Principal
Hello Chief Families!
I cannot believe the school year is coming to a close. However, there are lots of
exciting events happening at this time. May is always the busiest time of the year
and this year is no exception.
We are completing the administration of all of our assessments (FSA, EOC, AP,
AICE and Industry Certification). Some students are scheduled to take make-up
exams if they were absent. Please make certain your student has completed all of
the required assessments. Contact the Guidance Office if you have any questions.
Parent drop-off on Lawrence Road continues to be a challenge. Please make
certain to follow this expectation as it is a safety issue for students. The Sheriff’s
Office and School Police are patrolling the area and citations will be given if
violations occur. Your cooperation is appreciated.
Thank you to the parents and students who came out for Course Selection Night
and Spring Academy Open House. The turnout for both events were great! Your
support is appreciated.
Congratulations to the Class of 2016!! Graduation will be held on Monday, May
23, 2016 at 8:00 a.m. at the Fairgrounds. Underclassmen who choose to
attend school, the day will begin at 10:30 a.m. with lunch in the cafeteria. Bus
transportation is provided and will follow the same schedule used on late start days.
Please refer to the letter sent home in regards to the day’s schedule.
In closing, I would like to thank all of our parents and community members for their
support this year. A special thank you to our SAC members for their hard work and
dedication as well. The SAC committee meets the third Wednesday of each month
at 6:00 p.m. in the Media Center. All parents and students are welcome to attend.
I wish our seniors the absolute BEST as they transition into post-secondary
institutions and careers. It is my hope you all have a very relaxing and enjoyable
summer vacation.
Sincerely,
Tameka Robinson

Santaluces offers Edgenuity, also known as E2020,
over the summer. This is a computer based program
that allows struggling students the opportunity to
get back on track with credit recovery courses
which students need in order to fulfill graduation
requirements. These credit recovery courses will
forgive previous final grades of D or F as long as a
grade of C or higher is earned.
Applications are in Student Services and are due
May 27th, 2016 to Ms. Neer.
Happy 100th Birthday JROTC
April 23rd 1916 is the date the United States Army Junior Reserve Officers’ Training Corps
(JROTC) came into being with the passage of the National Defense Act of 1916. This year the
Cadets of Santaluces JROTC Academy will be celebrating 100 Years of Service to our Nation.
Title 10 of the U.S. Code declares that “the purpose of Junior Reserve Officers’ Training Corps
is to instill in students in United States secondary educational institutions the value of citizenship,
service to the United States, personal responsibility, and a sense of accomplishment.”
The courses for credit recovery being offered on E2020
for students this summer are: Algebra 1, Geometry,
Biology, Environmental Science, Physical Science, Earth
Space Science, Math for College Success, Liberal Arts
Math, American Government, Economics, World History,
US History, and English 1, 2, 3, & 4.
The JROTC Program has changed greatly over the 100 years. Once looked upon primarily as a source of enlisted recruits
and officer candidates, it became a citizenship program devoted to the moral, physical and educational uplift of American
youth. Although the program retained its military structure and the resultant ability to infuse in its student cadets a sense of
discipline and order, it shed most of its early military content.
The study of ethics, citizenship, communications, leadership, life skills and other subjects designed to prepare young men
and woman to take their place in adult society, evolved as the core of the program. More recently, an improved student
centered curriculum focusing on character building and civic responsibility is being presented in every JROTC classroom.
JROTC is a continuing success story. From a modest beginning of 6 units in 1916,
JROTC has expanded to 1645 schools today and to every state in the nation and
American schools overseas. Cadet enrollment has grown to 281,000 cadets
with 4,000 professional instructors in the classrooms. The JROTC instructors
serve as mentors developing the outstanding young citizens of our country.
In the spirit of celebrating 100 Years of Service to our Nation. The Cadets
of Santaluces will perform a birthday “Cake Cutting” ceremony at is Military
Ball in remembrance of the Millions of Cadets that have participated in
JROTC in the Last 100 Years.
