Escondido High School's Compass

Map student of the month

Map student of the month of February!

The Escondido Chamber of Commerce MAP student of the month is Natalie Gutierrez, a student at Escondido High School.

Natalie says the MAP Program has motivated her to study harder and get A's and B's during this school year. I'am doing very well at accomplishing my goal, too!

Each month the Chamber showcases a different student from one of the 3 schools. We have gone to each school to take their photo for this great program getting students to attend Cal State San Marcos.

I had the privilege of having two nice Seniors do Job Shadow Day with me. Macey from San Pasqual and Katya from Escondido High.

$2000.00 donation to the MAP Program

The Escondido East Rotary Club donated $2000.00 to the Escondido Union High School District MAP Program. MAP is a simple acronym to help keep school success as a goal for all students. It emphasizes these important messages:

• M: Maintain a rigorous course of study (completing A through G UC/CSU admission criteria with a 3.0 GPA)
• A: Attend school daily (maintaining a minimum of 98% attendance rate over 4 years)
• P: Participate in school and/or community activities (minimum total of 100 hours)

Beginning with the class of 2011, students who complete all four years of high school on an Escondido Union High School District campus, and achieve certain benchmarks (including those listed above), will be eligible for guaranteed college admission to California State University San Marcos. They will also be eligible to receive tuition assistance.
