Welcome

Dear Pio Pico Middle School Community,

It is an honor to be given the opportunity to lead the Pio Pico Middle School community this school year.  This is a responsibility I do not take lightly.  

As a person who attended and graduated from LAUSD schools, I understand how important it is for students and parents to know that their right to a quality instructional program in a safe learning environment is responsibly made a reality for every student.        

As a former Teacher Assistant, Substitute Teacher, Teacher, Coordinator, and new Principal, I understand how critical instructional support and collaboration among educators is to achieve a common goal.  

At Pio Pico we are committed to collaboratively creating an educational environment that enriches the lives of all our stakeholders.  Therefore, I welcome this opportunity to work alongside fellow Panthers to ensure all students experience Academic Excellence, Joy and Wellness, and a sense of Engagement and Collaboration.  We will Invest in Staff and implement Operational Effectiveness at our school site level to make our goals a reality. 

Our Pio Pico Middle School family looks forward to welcoming our students on their first day of school on Monday, August 15th at 8:25 AM.    

We recommend that all parents set up their Parent Portal accounts by visiting https://parentportal.lausd.net and completing the registration. Doing so will provide you access to your child’s academic progress and allow you to easily communicate with your child’s teachers.   

I look forward to a successful school year!
 
 
 
Mensaje del Director
Estimada comunidad de la Escuela Secundaria de Pío Pico,
 
Es un honor tener la oportunidad de liderar la comunidad de la Escuela Secundaria de Pio Pico este año escolar. Esta es una responsabilidad que no tomo a la ligera.
 
Como una persona que asistió y se graduó de las escuelas del Distrito Escolar de Los Ángeles, entiendo lo importante que es que los estudiantes y los padres sepan que su derecho a un programa educativo de calidad en un entorno de aprendizaje seguro se haga realidad de manera responsable para cada estudiante.
 
Como ex-asistente de profesores, suplente de profesores, profesor, coordinador y nuevo director, entiendo lo fundamental que es el apoyo educativo y la colaboración entre los educadores para lograr un objetivo común.
 
En Pio Pico estamos comprometidos a crear en colaboración un entorno educativo que enriquezca la vida de todos nuestros grupos de interés. Por lo tanto, agradezco esta oportunidad de trabajar junto con otros Panthers para garantizar que todos los estudiantes experimenten excelencia académica, alegría y bienestar, y un sentido de compromiso y colaboración. Invertiremos en el personal e implementaremos la eficacia operativa en nuestro sitio escolar para hacer realidad nuestras metas.
 
Nuestra familia de Pío Pico Middle School espera dar la bienvenida a nuestros estudiantes en su primer día de clases el lunes 15 de agosto a las 8:25 a.m.
 
Recomendamos que todos los padres configuren sus cuentas del Portal de Padres visitando https://parentportal.lausd.net y completando el registro. Si lo hace, le proporcionará acceso al progreso académico de su hijo y le permitirá comunicarse fácilmente con los profesores de su hijo.
 
¡Esperamos tener un año escolar exitoso!
 
Luis Tejada
