"Small but MIGHTY"

ENGINEERED FOR SUCCESS

Hello Sato Dragons,



We are well into four important seasons for Sato: testing, integrated projects, competition, and college acceptances.


Our juniors are hardest hit in the testing season. They have already taken the SAT and the SBAC, with nearly 100% of our students completing their exams. Also junior-heavy is AP testing which is spread out over the first two weeks of May, with finals close behind.


All of our dragons are deep into integrated and capstone projects. This important work involves industry feedback and presentations. We will have our integrated projects highlighted at Open House in May with a designated area on campus for each grade level's work.


Tis also the season for competitions. Congrats to Momentum Robotics for their 2nd place victory in a very competitive tournament. Congrats to Mushu and Dragon Fire, our top drone soccer teams. And congrats to our HOSA students currently at the state competition.


Lastly, college acceptances are pouring in for our hard working seniors. We are so proud of them. We have Yale, Tufts, Pomona, UCLA, UC Berkley, UCI, UCSD, SLO, Oberlin, and two military academies, just to name a few.


Have an amazing spring break. We will see you back at Sato on TUES, April 7th.


Ronnie

Sato's proud principal
