FROM OUR PTSA PRESIDENT TESS CRABTREE It is hard to believe that the first quarter is over and we are in the middle of the holiday season. We have much to be grateful for at Foothills Middle School.

Please be sure to thank our wonderful teachers and staff for making this a great school for our children. I want to personally thank all of those who have contributed so much time and energy to getting our school year off to a great start. Thank you, thank you, thank you! The Magazine Drive, chaired by Joyce Sakai and Karen Wong, had another incredible year with sales in excess of $54,300 and a profit of just under $21,200. Thank you to all the students, parents, faculty and staff who participated and helped with this fundraiser. The proceeds will benefit all the students through ASB and PSTA programs. Your support has helped us achieve a PTA membership of a truly amazing 148%! Thanks to Annette Wheat and Carol Misakian for chairing our membership drive. Your PTA membership helps to support our unit as well as advocate for our children through the State and National PTA. Many of our student body enjoyed the school dance; a huge success due to the hard work of Lan Nguyen and the wonderful parents who provided goodies and helped chaperone. Thanks to Carol Vizcarra and Joyce Sakai for coordinating Red Ribbon Week in October which encourages our children to remain drug free.

Once again, our students participated in the National PTA Reflections Program. Kay Fox and Marianna Nikalaidou worked many hours on this year’s program, whose theme is “Beauty Is….”, and we are grateful to them both. As we enter the holiday season, I want to express my gratitude for your support of our November “CAN You Help?” food drive. This is the former “White Christmas” program which has been revamped to provide support to Arcadia families all year long. Each Arcadia school has been assigned a month to collect food and November was our school’s month. Janet Downer has returned to chair this wonderful program which provides vital assistance to many in our city. The volunteers involved, and your generous donations, reflect the sincere caring of our community. PTSA will begin celebrating the season with our Holiday Brunch and PTSA meeting on December 10th at the home of Janet Downer. The meeting will start at 8:45 a.m. with brunch served afterwards. Thank you to Stella Bonney and Janet Downer for planning and hosting this fun event. We hope to see you there! Invitations will be located in the office and are extended to everyone. I want to wish all of you a Happy Holiday Season. Enjoy this time with your family and friends and we will see you in 2010! With Gratitude, Tess Crabtree (626) 355-3737 crabbytess@gmail.com

PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE… Tricia Hartline, Principal The second quarter is well underway and the students are involved in a variety of school activities. The ASB has organized dances, our annual student spirit assembly, and various lunchtime activities. The band and drill team have participated in two parades, and orchestra has several performances planned. Our athletic teams, clubs, and peer tutoring are all in full swing. Please continue to encourage your students to get involved with the exciting activities at school. Our annual magazine fundraiser was a great success. Through the hard work of students and their families, Foothills exceeded our financial goal. Many thanks to Joyce Sakai and Karen Wong for coordinating our only fundraiser of the school year. I would also like to recognize the efforts of the many parents who consistently volunteer to help and support Foothills. A few weeks ago, Foothills students took the first benchmark tests in English language arts, mathematics, and history. These tests are standards-based assessments designed to monitor student progress toward meeting grade level standards. Teachers spend time reviewing each benchmark assessment, and students use the results of these assessments to analyze errors and establish goals for improvement. Science will be in upcoming assessments. When AUSD adopted the current science instructional materials (CPO Science), science instruction shifted dramatically to a hands-on, inquiry-based program. In addition to traditional laboratory equipment, classrooms received stream tables, ramps and energy cars, digital balances, photo gates, weather tools, density cubes, light and optics equipment, ropes and pulleys, molecule building sets, atom building games, even a sphygmomanometer and stethoscope! Students are also provided with a science notebook to record data and observations, take notes and reflect on each lesson and accompanying lab. Implementation of the new CPO Science program has provided ongoing professional development for teachers. In addition to planning and doing all of the labs, teachers have worked together to refine instructional strategies, assessments and grading. Our hope is for all Foothills students to LOVE science and build their skills through learning the foundational knowledge related to earth, life and physical science. I am very proud of the work that our teachers and students do each day. Regular collaboration, careful planning, and ongoing training are essential activities for our teachers and staff. Our goal is to make an excellent school even better. I hope that you and your family celebrate and enjoy this wonderful time of the year. This winter break, I encourage you to include the joy or reading and sharing books as part of your family activities. On behalf of the entire Foothills staff, we wish you a happy winter break!

HELPING YOUR CHILD SUCCEED IN SCHOOL

From Our Counseling Staff

Middle School students have lots to do! They certainly have more homework than they did in elementary school, and the caliber of work they are being asked to do is much higher than they have previously experienced. Many students are being challenged academically for the first time in their lives! Middle School is also a time of exploration: finding new friends, new interests, and new opportunities, all of which are important as well. The demands on students’ time are great, especially if they are involved in outside activities like sports, music, specialty classes, or the performing arts. How can you as a parent help your child focus on homework with all of these distractions? Here are a few helpful hints from The Parent Institute®, in their pamphlet, “Moving Right Along: Ways Parents Can Help Children Succeed in the Middle Grades.”

• Have a regular place for homework. Doing homework in the same place everyday gives your child the message that this is an important activity.

• Find the best place to study. Make sure it is well lit, quiet, neat, and well supplied with pens, paper, pencils, and reference books. Minimize the distractions!

• Get into a routine. Some students need a snack or a break before they start to study. Some need breaks during their study time. A regular time to do homework every day makes it difficult to forget to do it!

• Set goals for every study session. Make sure your child is checking his/her agenda to make sure all homework is done, including studying for tests and working on long term projects.

• Pack the backpack the night before. Make sure all homework gets into the appropriate folder in the backpack.

A MESSAGE FROM OUR ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL…

Ben Acker

It is hard to believe that we are already in the second quarter! It seems like only yesterday that school began. Traffic is a key issue that impacts student safety at Foothills. We recently had a traffic safety observation by representatives from the city, Arcadia police department, and the school district. By following a few simple guidelines, we can make the area around Foothills safer for our students. When arriving at campus in the morning, pull as far forward in the parking lot as possible before dropping off your student. This will allow the maximum number of vehicles to enter the parking lot, thus reducing traffic congestion on Sycamore and Second Ave. When waiting to pick up students after school, do not block our neighbors’ driveways or park on their property. Remember that Oakhaven and the upper parking lot are not to be used as drop off or pick up locations for students. If your child rides a bike to school, remind him or her to obey all traffic laws and to ride on the right side of the road with the flow of traffic. All students who ride a bicycle, skateboard, scooter, or skates must wear a helmet. Our first dance of the year was a huge success with more than 300 students in attendance. Thanks to all of the volunteers and staff who worked hard to make it an enjoyable experience for the students. Our next two dances will take place on December 3rd and February 4th. I hope that you and your family enjoy the holiday season. Please do not hesitate to call or email me at backer@ausd.net if I can be of any assistance.

Our popular dances (and many other successful student events) would not be possible without the tireless work and enthusiasm of our first semester ASB student officers:

PTSA 主席的話

很難相信第一個學期已經結束，我們已經進入了節日季節。在山麓中

學，我們有許多值得感激的事，請不要忘記謝謝我們出色的教職員工們，是

他們為我們的孩子創造了一個出色的學校。我個人也要深深地感謝所有為學

校事務盡心盡力的人們，謝謝大家的努力！

雜誌義賣活動今年在 Joyce Sakai 和 Karen Wong 的領導下取得了巨大的

成功，共賣出雜誌$54,300，學校獲利近$21,200。感謝所有的學生、家長、

教職員工的共同參與，籌款將用于校學生會和家長會的各項活動。

在大家的共同努力下，我們學校參加家長會的人數比例達到了令人吃

驚的 148%。感謝 Coral Misakian 和 Annette Wheat 主持會員申請工作。大家

交的會員費將幫助我會開展各項活動，最終讓我們的孩子受益。

我們的學生很多都喜歡學校的舞會，感謝 Lan Nguyen 的辛苦工作使舞

會辦得如此成功，也感謝家長們提供點心和做現場陪伴。另外，感謝 Carol

Vizcarra 和 Joyce Sakai 組織十月份的紅絲帶周，這項活動鼓勵我們的孩子遠

離毒品。

今年我們的學生又一次參加了全國 PTSA(家長教師學生協會)舉辦的才

藝大賽。Kay Fox 和 Marianna Nikalaidon 為此花費了很多時間。今年比賽的主

題是：“美麗就是...”。

進入節日季節，我要感謝大家支持十月份的“你可以幫忙嗎？”捐贈

食品活動。這項活動的前身叫“白色圣誕”，現在則做為全年性的活動，以

幫助我市的貧困家庭。每個月會指定我市一所學校負責收集食品，11 月輪到

我們學校，Janet Downer 又一次負責這項有助于我市許多家庭的活動，大家

的捐獻和幫忙都是對我們社區的最好關懷。

PTSA 將以早午餐會來慶祝圣誕佳節，時間是 12 月 10 日，地點在 Janet

Downer 家。月會將于 8:45am 開始，接下來就是早午餐會。感謝 Stella

Bonney 和 Janet Downer 策劃和主辦這個活動，希望大家來參加。邀請信可

從校辦公室領取。

祝大家節日愉快！與家人和朋友分享佳節，我們 2010 年再見！

家長會會長 Tess Crabtree

來自校長的信息

第二學期已經順利地進行，學生們也在參與學校各種各樣的活動。新

成立的學生會已經組織了學校舞會、每年一次的學生集會，以及多種午餐時

間的活動。軍樂隊和操練隊已參加過倆次游行，弦樂隊也已計劃了多項表

演。我們的運動隊、社團和同齡輔導活動都在全面進行。讓我們繼續鼓勵學

生參與學校的各項活動。

我們的雜志義賣籌款活動辦得很成功，經過學生和家長們的艱苦努

力，我們已經超過了預定的財務目標。非常感謝活動的負責人 Joyce Sakai 和

Karen Wong 領導了這個學校全年唯一的一次籌款活動。我也很感謝眾多的家

長們一直在支持和幫助我們的學校。

幾周前，我校學生完成了今年第一次英文、數學和歷史的評估考試。

這些考試是依據教學大綱設計的，用于評估學生的學習進步，以及達到年級

教學要求的情況。老師會花時間回顧這些評估測試，學生會去分析自己做錯

的地方，并確立改進的目標。科學課也將被列入以后的評估考試。

當我們學區采用了 CPO 科學課教材后，科學課的教學就戲劇性地轉變

成以動手和質詢為基礎的課程。除了傳統的實驗室設備外，課堂里還增加了

一串桌子、坡道以及能量車、數字天平、照片門、氣象工具、密度立方體、

燈光和光學設備、繩子和滑輪、分子結構組合套件、原子的拼接游戲，甚至

還有血壓計和聽診器！另外，還給學生提供一個記錄本，以便記下有關數據

和觀察到的東西，以及在課堂和實驗中做筆記。

采用新的 CPO 科學課教材為教師提供了專業上的進一步發展，除了設

計和進行所有的實驗，教師還要在一起改進授課的策略、教學評估以及打分

的標準。我們希望我校的學生都能熱愛科學這門課，并通過學習有關地球、

生命及物理方面的基本知識，從而培養學生的技能。

我為全校師生每一天所做的努力而感到驕傲！一貫地合作、細心地做

計劃，以及持續地培訓，是我們教職員的首要工作。我們的目標就是創造一

所更好的學校。

在寒假里，我希望大家多閱讀，與家人分享讀書的快樂。我代表全體

教職員祝大家節日愉快！

校長 Tricia Hartline

副校長的訊息

時間過得真快！很難相信現在已進入了第二個學期，開學之日仿佛就

在昨天。

交通依然是我校影響學生安全的首要問題。最近，由市政府、市警察

局和學區派人對學校的交通安全進行了考察。如果大家都能服從簡單的交通

規定，我們就可以使學校周圍變得對學生更安全。早晨送孩子到學校時，請

將車子盡可能在停車場里向前停，再讓學生下車，這樣可以讓更多的車子進

入停車場，以減少小街上的車輛。下午接學生時，請不要擋住周圍住戶的車

道。請大家記住，Oakhaven街上面的停車場不可以用來接、送學生。如果騎

自行車上學，一定要遵守交通規則，請走在同方向車輛的右邊。騎自行車、

滑板、單腳滑行車和旱冰鞋都必須戴頭盔。

今年的第一次舞會非常成功，有 300多位學生參加。感謝所有家長義

工和教職員們的辛苦工作，讓學生們能有一次盡情享受的經歷。我們的下兩

次舞會時間訂于 12月 3 日和 2 月 4日。祝愿所有的家庭節日愉快！

有任何問題需要我幫忙，歡迎隨時與我聯系。電郵 backer@ausd.net。

副校長 Ben Acker

幫助你的孩子在學校取得成功 ---

學生顧問的話

中學生有很多事要做！他們的作業比小學生要多，他們被要求做的事

情遠比以前做過的要求高很多。許多學生會面臨有生以來的第一次學業上的

挑戰！中學時期也是一個人生的探索時期：尋找新的朋友、新的機會，發現

新的興趣愛好。這些都非常重要。中學對學生時間上的要求也更高了，特別

是那些還要參加課外活動，如體育、音樂、特別課程以及表演的學生。

做為家長，你如何讓孩子在眾多分心的事中能集中精力做好作業，這

里有一些非常有幫助的提示，出自家長學院提供的手冊“往前走：家長可以

幫助孩子在中學階段取得成功的方法”。

1. 有一個固定的地方做作業 --- 每天在同一個地方做作業會傳遞給孩子一個

信息：這是一件重要的事情。

2. 找一個最好的學習地方 --- 這個地方一定要燈光好、安靜、整齊、備有筆紙

和參考書，盡量減少干擾。

3. 養成一種習慣 --- 有些學生需要先吃點東西或休息一下再開始做作業，有些

則是在學習中間需要休息一下。每天在固定的時間做作業就很少會忘記做

了！

4. 對每部分學習設定目標 --- 讓孩子對照每天在學校記的事情日程，以保證做

完所有的作業，包括準備考試和長期的項目。

5. 書包在前一天晚上裝好 --- 保證所有作業都放在相應的文件夾里，裝入書

包。

才藝表演（Talent Show）

才藝表演歡迎每一位學生來參加。我們希望表演豐富多彩，表演分類

有：音樂、戲劇、舞蹈、魔術和幽默。才藝表演保證有趣又娛樂，請來參加
