Dear SAS/AAA Scholars, Families, Teachers, and Staff,
Welcome to a brand-new school year: one filled with promise, purpose, and the power of Roaring with Pride!
As we embark on the 2025-2026 school year, we do so with hearts full of hope and minds ready to reach new heights. This year, we are united by a shared spirit: a collective commitment to excellence, perseverance, and pride in everything we do. Our theme, Roaring with Pride, is not just a slogan. It’s a mindset. A call to action. A standard that inspires each of us to be bold, compassionate, resilient, and relentlessly curious.
Every day is a new opportunity to shine. Don’t be afraid to stumble. Greatness is born in resilience. Push through doubts, embrace your uniqueness, and remember, when you join the Dream Factory, you belong to a community that believes in your power to succeed.
This year, let our classrooms echo with curiosity. Let our hallways shine with laughter and unity. Let our activities be filled with school spirit. Let every achievement, every step forward, and every act of kindness be a part of the collective roar that defines our community.
Let’s lead. Let’s learn. Let’s Roar with Pride: Not just for ourselves, but for each other.
Here’s to a phenomenal school year!
With boundless enthusiasm,
Omar Monteagudo, J.D., Principal
School for Advanced Studies/Academy for Advanced Academics
