Superintendent’s Forward:

Education is a joint venture involving the combined efforts of students, parents, and educators. These grade level booklets have been developed as a resource for parents seeking ways to assist their children in their educational journey. Each grade level booklet was produced through the efforts of many dedicated professionals and is designed to help you understand more fully the educational growth your children will experience in the Huntington Beach City School District.

Given adequate resources and enough time, we could easily achieve the objectives outlined in these booklets with the vast majority of our students. In the real world of public education, however, limited time and resources require that we work diligently as a team to equip our students with the essential skills, attitudes, and beliefs that they will need to be successful now and in the future.

In addition to assisting parents, these booklets are also designed as a resource for our entire educational community. Teachers, administrators, support personnel, and community partners will benefit from a careful and thoughtful reading of the books. If you should have questions, or if there are parts that you do not understand, please do not hesitate to contact your child’s teacher, a school administrator, or the district office.

We are proud to be partners in your child’s education. We know that we play an important role in your child’s progress, but we are equally clear that you are his or her most important teachers and models. Together, we can chart a course of success for each student in the Huntington Beach City School District. Dr. Roberta Deluca Superintendent of Schools

Guiding Principles Of Huntington Beach City School District

Character Counts
Respect, caring, trustworthiness, fairness, responsibility, and citizenship are the ethical foundations upon which our district is built. We value each individual who practices, teaches, and serves as the role model for these virtues.

Academic Excellence and Accountability
Academic excellence is the highest priority in our district. Students will demonstrate academic proficiency by meeting world class standards. To that end, all stakeholders in the organization—board members, employees, students, and parents—are accountable for carrying out their responsibilities toward that end.

High Expectations
We believe that each child is an individual of great worth entitled to develop to his or her full potential. All children can and will learn, and each deserves equal access to a quality education that is built upon high expectations.

Parent and Community Involvement and Teamwork
Families, staff, and the entire community are full partners, actively working in a collaborative manner for the benefit of each child’s education. We welcome, seek, and expect active participation and involvement of all stakeholders.

Shared Responsibility
We believe that education is a shared responsibility where the student, the school, the home, and the community work together toward common goals.

Civic Pride and Social Responsibility
It is important that students understand the origins of the nation, principles of the Declaration of Independence, and ideals and hopes of the founding patriots. They should develop a respect for the fundamental law of the land, together with a concern for the just enforcement and improvement of the law.

Lifelong Learning
We are committed to display, and develop in our students, habits of the mind and heart that will lead to a lifetime love of learning.
