1 Dear Parent/Guardian: LOS ANGELES CENTER FOR ENRICHED STUDIES 5931 W. 18TH Street, Los Angeles, CA Welcome to the Los Angeles Center for Enriched Studies for the school year. School will begin with all classes meeting on Tuesday, August 12, School will begin at 7:57 a.m. and end at 1:57 p.m. Please allow enough time to arrive in class before the bell rings. Your child should report to his/her homeroom, which is listed on the enclosed program card. Important School Documents: Please complete and return the enclosed Emergency Information Form (purple) to your child's homeroom teacher on the first day of school. Your child will also be receiving other documents to bring home to you for completion during the first week of school. Please look for this packet and return the required documents. Transportation: If you live more than five miles from LACES, you will be receiving bus information from the LAUSD Office of Transportation in the mail during the week before school starts. Some bus stops may have been changed due to the budget situation in our district. For any questions or concerns regarding transportation, please call the Transportation Supervisor at (323) or LA BUSES. Students Not Returning to LACES: If you are not returning to LACES for this academic school year, please call (323) and inform the Magnet Office of your intention to enroll at another school by August 1, This will allow us to fill your position with another student from our extensive waiting list and assist us in notifying the Transportation Office that you will not need their services. Class Schedules and Program Repair Days: We have enclosed your tentative schedule of classes. Please review and make a note of any mistakes such as missing classes and/or changes needed due to summer school completion and AP assignments. Program Repair Days are for MISTAKES in your child's schedule. For instance, your child was assigned two math classes and no English class or your child was assigned the incorrect level of a subject then that is a mistake. If your child has successfully completed a credit recovery class over the summer, you need to bring his/her grade report/transcript with you so that the counselor can make those corrections. If your child was accepted into a class (e.g. Yearbook, Leadership) and it is not on his/her schedule that is also a mistake that needs to be corrected on Program Repair Day. All concerns regarding the program should be directed to the respective counselor. If your program is correct as is, we'll see you on August 12, Though there are phone and contacts for your child's counselor, please remember that the counselors are on vacation until the week of August 4th and are not necessarily checking voice or prior to that. You may find that voice mail boxes are full or that s bounce or go unreturned. Counselors will not be dealing with requests for specific teachers or switches from one period of a subject to another, nor will they be switching electives around. Unfortunately, students' schedules don't always accommodate their choice of electives, particularly in the upper grades where some courses are only offered one or two periods per day. 1 1 th and 12th graders tend to have particularly difficult schedules to change around if they are taking multiple AP classes. Your child may not be able to take all the classes he would like. If you cannot make it during Program Repair Days, your child will be able to sort out his/her schedule when school starts the following week. Students should report to the homeroom they have been assigned and then make an appointment to see their counselor about changes that might need to be made. Last year, schedule changes were still being made for a week or so after school began.

Students may arrive between 9 am 12pm on program repair days for all grade levels except 6 th. 6th grade program repair will begin at 1pm. Stop Clearances: Students who did not receive a schedule in the packet due to "Stop Clearance" issues can come into school beginning July 30th when the book room staff has returned. Once you have sorted out lost or missing books (or incorrectly recorded as lost or missing), you will receive your student's schedule. Summer Reading Lists: Please check the school's website under the Bulletin Board section to find the Summer 2014 assignments. Each grade level has reading assignments that need to be completed by the start of the fall semester. In addition many of the AP courses have required readings that need to be completed before school starts. The school's website is: Bell Schedule: On Tuesday, August 12 th we will have a special bell schedule. Students will go to all seven classes. On Wednesday we will begin our new bell schedule. Wednesday will be an "Odd" day. Periods 1, 3, 5, and 7 will meet. Thursday will be an "Even" day and periods 2, 4, 6, and 7 will meet. Please see the website under News and Announcement to find a more detailed schedule. Lunch Applications: The online meal application for the school year is now open! Please go to the direct link at: to apply. If you have any questions on how to fill out the application, please contact Food Services at or visit the Food Services website at Also feel free to visit LACES and ask for assistance. Since the school's funding is tied to the number of students who receive free or reduced lunch, it is extremely important for every qualifying family to submit a meal application. The school will lose a half a million dollars in funding if we do not have enough students who submit meal applications. If this happens we will need to increase class sizes by decreasing staff and eliminate tutoring programs. 6th Grade Information: r3 d Incoming 6th graders will get a chance to meet each other at the Class of 2021 Picnic on Sunday, Aug. at the Cheviot Hills Recreation Center. Please rsvp to Cindy Bitterman at cindylbitterman@yahoo.com. All 6th graders are invited to participate in Math Mania. This is a one-day event that is designed to introduce 6 th graders to the joy of doing mathematics at LACES. 6 th graders can attend on either August 6th or August 7th. Please call the school at (323) to reserve a spot. The New Student Orientation will take place on Friday, August 8 th at 10 am at LACES.

3 New Staff: Please help me to welcome the following new additions to the faculty: Diana Turken (English) Kimberly Myers (English) Cathy Figel (P.E.) Brian Noguchi (Science) Robert Munoz (Math) Natalya Kutner (Computers) Mayra Martinez (Spanish) Adam Frankel (Librarian) I hope that you have had a restful summer and that you are looking forward to the academic year.
