On Thursday morning, June 12, 2008, Del Mar Hills Academy promoted its 39th sixth grade class on to middle school. Although united by the wondorous years of elementary school, our students will go in many different directions as they continue their academic journey...Earl Warren and Carmel Valley Middle Schools, Bishops, Grauer, SD Jewish Academy, and La Jolla Counrty Day. Sixty-three of our now alumni sang, danced, performed piano and orchestra selections and read incredibly insightful speeches (see "Laurie blog" to the left). We wish them well as they move forward and continue the tradition of excellence and achievement that is the legacy of the Hills! Read more...

Mrs. Warren visited camp on Tuesday and our sixth graders did quite well! Staff is impressed with Camp Marston...even the food is good! Mrs. Warren reported that the students were very excited about the activities: a night hike, canoeing, rock climbing, outdoor cooking, and skit night. She took some great pictures (see our gallery). Mrs. Francis and Mrs. Swanberg visited on Wednesday with lots of mail from our parents! We will post more pictures. Ah, the elementary school years!
