While last year’s Open House was a major success, revived by former Principal Catherine Real, this year, the event conflicted with the scheduling of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges visit. Because of that, Open House, originally scheduled for March 17, has been postponed to a later date.

“What I realized is that the two activities were so close together, I didn’t feel comfortable that with all the preparations for the teachers that we had to do for the WASC and that we could prepare for Open House,” Interim Principal Guy Roubian said.

The administration is planning a date for the event and hopes to hold it sometime in April so that the event will not conflict with any AP tests occurring during May.

“Teachers do put a lot of work into preparing for Open House and at the same time we’ve been preparing for the events and it was just too much to do,” Roubian said.
