ACCOMPLISHMENTS
2/4/2010 Seniors Tara Blanchard (left) and Sarah Pearson (right) recently signed NCAA Letters of Intent.  Tara plans to attend the University of Southern California and to run track while Sarah is headed to the University of San Francisco with a scholarship to run track and cross country.   Congratulations to Tara and Sarah!


2/2/2010 The Regents recently held a school-wide drive for donations to assist earthquake victims in Haiti.  In just one day, a total of $8,787.43 was raised and will be sent to Catholic Relief Services.  La Reina students continue to demonstrate service to the local, national and global community through fundraising and other activities.  Recent global efforts include support for a mission in Uganda, sponsored by the Sisters of Notre Dame, as well as Katrina victims in New Orleans.   Examples of local outreach include the "Adopt-a-Family" program through the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in Los Angeles and the "Relay for Life" team.  Campus minister Kristi Hutter Balleweg '91 stated, "It is important for students to respond to those in need and to learn the positive impact of their sacrifices."

12/16/2009 This Christmas, the students and staff of La Reina High School adopted 25 families, totaling approximately 120 individuals.   According to Sr. Rebekah Kennedy, La Reina’s religion department chairperson, these families are included in the “Adopt-a-Family-Program” through the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in Los Angeles.  Clothing, shoes, toys, bikes, beds and bedding, and other household furnishings and supplies were donated.  The gifts will be delivered through St. Francis Center, an agency which serves homeless and near homeless adults and children in the South Park and Garment District neighborhoods of downtown Los Angeles.  In this photo, Kelly Kohler ’11 helps to load the gifts onto the delivery truck. 


12/1/2009 Congratulations to Alexis Williams '10 whose artwork won first place in the Ventura County Science Fair Poster Contest! 

A local panel of educators and scientists judged her design--of a young woman morphing into a robot--to be the best representation of the theme, "Science for Change."  There were more than 175 entries from students throughout Ventura County.  Alexis' art will be featured in posters and other information that will publicize the science fair.

Alexis was also featured in a recent article in the
Ventura County Star. 
10/24/2009 Congratulations to Emily Castillo '11, Claira Castillo '13, Elly Shao '12, Victoria Thomas'11, Dori Wilcox '11 and Alice Zielinski '12 (not shown).  They took two robots to the Beach City Robotics Competition at Hawthorne High School on Oct. 24.  After more than 70 matches involving 36 teams, the Robo-Regents B team, represented by Elly Shao and Claira Castillo, shared the Tournament Championship with their alliance partners from Van Nuys and San Jose.  This result qualifies the Regent teams for the world championships in Dallas.  Go Robo-Regents!

10/8/2009 CONGRATULATIONS to the students participating in Regent speech and debate programs! 

They recently earned significant recognition by the NATIONAL FORENSIC LEAGUE.  Because the La Reina chapter achieved 100 degrees or more during 2008-09, the Regents placed in the top 10% of NFL chapters nationwide and qualified for the NFL "100 Club."
