Dear BOBCAT Nation,
On Tuesday, October 21, Dr. Suzette Lovelly, CUSD Superintendent, held the inaugural State of the District Event to inform our community partners about CUSD’s new mission and vision as well shared our academic milestones from the 2013-14 academic-year. The theme of the State of the District event was EXCELLENT SCHOOLS ARE EVERYONE’S BUSINESS.
The purpose of the event was to showcase how well teachers and staff are preparing students for success. It was geared to inform our external partners – e.g. members of the business community, elected officials, leaders of non-profits, and representatives from local colleges and universities - how education looks and sounds in CUSD.
Sage Creek had several students engaging community leaders in table top discussions and demonstrating first-hand the great education they are receiving. Additionally, many complemented our orchestra students for their great performance.
 GREAT COMMUNITY – GREAT DISTRICT – GREAT SCHOOL! Go BOBCATS!
J. César Morales
Principal
Sage Creek High School

Our First College Admissions Rep
The Counseling Department is excited to welcome our first college admission representative to our campus. Gia Ballash from the University of San Diego Admissions Office will be in the Counseling Center Tuesday, October 28th, during student lunch from 11:30 to 12 Noon to introduce interested students to USD.
To attend this presentation, students need to sign on the sign up list available at the Counseling Office Reception Desk. Because seating is limited, 10th graders will be given priority.
PSAT Recap
On Saturday, 268 Bobcats out of 284 who had signed up took the PSAT in the Bobcat Arena. Another 21 students took the test at Carlsbad High on Wednesday. To have 305 or over 40% of our students sign up for the PSAT is impressive.
Counselor Assignments
We wanted to remind you that all Sage Creek students have been assigned to a counselor by the first letter of their last names. Student assignments are:
