Download this calendar and post to your home or office bulletin board to stay engaged with this year's activities. This year features the return of the e3 Civic High Parent Training Institute.

This year brings us continued opportunities to fulfill our goals and dreams. The Helpful Handbook for 2019 recommends we take note of the following in this New Year:
Do the Right thing!
Get rid of anything that is not helpful, peaceful, or joyful.
Time will eventually allow healing.
However good or bad a situation, it will change; therefore take heart and hold on.
No matter how you feel, get up, dress up, and show up!
When you awake each morning, you're alive; choose to be thankful!
Be assured that you are loved and needed; your life is full of purpose.
Know that the best is yet to come!

Take care of you, take care of each other, take care of e3...

This year e3 will return to a new and improved, year-long Parent Institute. Here's the outstanding line up for this year's training. All sessions (listed below) will offer a simultaneous presentation in English and Spanish. Every parent who attends will receive a free training binder with all course materials and resources.

Lead singer, Andy Vargas along with his band, Soulerous visited e3 to share his story of overcoming challenges and the triumph of success. Scholars heard a powerful message about the potential that resides within them to make change, leave a positive impact, and inspire others. That message was highlighted by the beautiful music that filled the entire 9th floor of the Shiley Suite. Oye cómo va mi ritmo...
Scholars were invited to volunteer at the Love Thy Neighbor event on Saturday. A Benefit Toy Drive was held at the East Village Courtyard to uplift the terminally ill children in hospitals just across our border. As usual, e3 showed up to give their time in service to others!

The early notifications have started to arrive for the graduating class of 2019! We are capturing their excitement and sharing the joy of success. We will proudly post
these accomplishments as they come into
the e3 Newsroom!

Members of the Madrigal choir have been taking the beauty of song into the broader community of San Diego. They were invited to perform at the dinner for the Urban League's Celebration of Diversity for Women Leaders and at the San Diego Downtown Fellowship of Churches Holiday Luncheon. Both groups were inspired by the music and have donated to support the choir's trip to the Music Competition in Washington, DC. If you'd like the choir to perform at your event, contact mgibson@e3Civichigh.com.
