Derrick Breaux

Let’s Rock On!

A

Derrick Breaux Publisher

s many of you know, I spent a great deal of my childhood in Texas. I have fond memories of family evenings with a close friend digging into classic country and southern rock songs with nothing more than his deep voice, guitar, and love of entertaining. He was always reluctant to play at first, but after the required nudges, he coincidentally would have his guitar in the truck and treat everyone to a wonderful experience that is hard to match.

My wife and I recently opened the door to music in the Breaux household by purchasing a guitar for our son and a piano for our youngest daughter. Each kid chose their own instrument. Microphones, amps, and lots of wires later, we were geared up for them to make some music.

So, we found a great music instructor for weekly lessons. It was slowgoing at first. While I tried offering words of wisdom (as if I had a clue) about the learning curve and ultimate satisfaction of completing their first song, our kids reluctantly pushed on.

Then it happened. Our son learned the chords and vocals to an entire song – Justin Beiber’s Love Yourself. He began playing it more. He tested it out in front of his friends, eventually graduating to open mic nights at local eateries, as well as small festival performances set up by his instructor.

Not wanting to be a one-song performer, my son is pushing hard to learn more songs for future shows. I think he’s caught the performing bug. Our daughter is close behind, even though she is still a little unsure about the performance part.

Taking things one step further, I used an iPad (and more wires) to turn our living room into a karaoke studio. Okay, so I just made that sound better than it really is, but it’s a cool setup nonetheless. What my wife and I witnessed after was nothing short of amazing. Our kids and their friends have been singing just about every song you can think of. They sing some seriously, while others are simply for kicks. The most important thing is that they are laughing, dancing, and having a great time.

I’m glad we left our bubble and opened a new opportunity for them.

Even if the ultimate outcome is just for them to be able to pick up an instrument and make close friends and family feel good on a relaxing evening in the backyard – it’s worth it.

Thanks for reading 92081 Magazine. Be sure to reach out to our advertising partners and let them know you saw them in the magazine.

All the best, Derrick Breaux, Publisher

Empowering Others Madison Coleman Is Focused on Helping Fellow Students

by KELLEY GUSICH | photo by Alicia Jeanne Photography

P

LUS, which stands for Peer Leaders Uniting Students, is just one of the many important student assistance groups for local student Madison Coleman. Back in her freshman year at Rancho Buena Vista High School, Madison struggled academically and personally. She didn’t feel supported because she didn’t know about the availability of PLUS and peer counseling, which she’s now embraced. “I wanted to join because students should know that you will have obstacles in school and in life, but you don’t have to go through the process alone,” she confirmed. “I also wanted to be a part of peer counseling and PLUS to share my story and use it as an inspiration for others.”

An essential part of Madison’s story is her involvement with the Black Student Union (BSU). A field trip to MiraCosta College during Black History Month last year motivated Madison and

other RBV students to found this club, which has become her passion.

The club’s mission is to create unity between ethnicities on campus. A deep interest in black history and what she can do to make a difference on campus and in the local community is Madison’s anchor. “I am one of the presidents for BSU and it has taught me how to continue my role in leadership, and it “It has taught me how pushes me to spread love and to continue my role in knowledge to others and to the leadership and it pushes members of BSU.” The Adulting Club on the me to spread love and RBV campus and the Joshua Team at her church round out knowledge to others...” her involvements. Six years of competitive club soccer have taken a back seat this year so Madison can concentrate on her helping endeavors. Painting, singing, and watching old television shows rank as Madison’s greatest hobbies – and her current favorites are Golden Girls and The Andy Griffith Show. She gives thanks to her dad for inspiring her daily to do better and work harder achieving her goals, and she’s grateful to her teachers, friends, family, and church family for their continual support.

From her time in helping other students, “I gain growth as an individual, experience, and getting to know others on a deeper level,” Madison shared. Vista’s student star Madison Coleman has turned helping others into an art form, and plans to continue her education and involvements at a California university, learning communication and ethnic studies. 

Restoring Hope

VISTA-BASED PROGRAM RAISES MONEY FOR CAMPUS RENOVATION

N

ew Haven Youth and Family Services recently held their annual Restoring Hope Fundraiser to benefit the organization’s Welcome Home Project, which aims to revitalize 12 outdoor domains on the Vista campus. Over 300 people attended the sold-out event, which included delicious food, live entertainment by local band Daring Greatly, a raffle, live auction, and silent auction with more than 150 items. New Haven also unveiled plans for the upcoming renovation at their Vista campus, which will provide many outdoor learning spaces including an amphitheater, recreational field, Coliseum, shaded patio, healing garden, splash zone, and sound garden. “By improving our outdoor spaces, we’re able to better teach, connect, and heal our youth by creating the

welcoming and safe environment that they deserve,” said CEO Doreen Quinn.

For 50 years, New Haven Youth and Family Services has been transforming lives for at-risk adolescent boys through an innovative education model that develops life and work skills in a healthy environment.

The organization’s comprehensive program focuses on special education, work

readiness, and transitional living skills for adolescents with social, emotional, or behavioral issues, learning disabilities, or mental illness. New Haven serves over 200 youth annually ages 12 and up, tapping into their unrealized potential and helping them successfully transition into adulthood.

O

n the roundabout of S. Santa Fe and Eucalyptus is our city’s first permanent art commission. It is named Prima Vista, meaning “first sight” and was designed by Vista native Michael Angelo Venturella. “As with any design, it all started with the site,” said Michael. “It was important that the roundabout receive a sculpture that would be intriguing from all angles, instead of having a singular focal point.” Its thoughtful placement and design earned Prima Vista an Orchid & Onion architectural nomination.

It seems to move with our moves.

Imagine two dancing entities joined by a touching embrace mid-step. Michael revealed, “The spiraling design provides a dynamic focal point that morphs as users navigate the roundabout.” The harmony of the piece is

enhanced by the use of impervious Brazilian ipe (pronounced EE-pay) wood.

Michael, 27, holds a degree in architecture and is working to become a licensed architect. Prima Vista is his first public work and it honors his love for his hometown.

He related, “The most enjoyable part about living here is seeing the city grow and blossom into a beautiful community.” Michael attended St. Francis of Assisi Parish School and graduated from Tri-City Christian School. As he put it, he “spent two years soul searching at Palomar College” before finding his focus at The NewSchool of Architecture & Design in San Diego, where he received his B.A. in architecture. He’s inspired by the challenge, he said, “to make the abstract tangible.”

Traveling and spending youthful summers

in Italy has influenced his practice. Michael’s parents are from Sicily. He reminisced, “I was born in California, but most of my childhood memories involve playing soccer in the streets of Lascari, gathering in the piazzas, speaking with neighbors on our balconies, and enjoying the small town sense of community.” To stoke his creative side, Michael is a drummer in a new band, Schematics, with some of his longtime friends.

“I look forward to becoming a licensed architect and continuing to contribute to our beautiful city through many forms of design,” he added. “I aim to produce designs that look to the future, while nodding to the past.” Michael Venturella reimagined this roundabout – leading him down the road toward future inspirational works. 

B E H I N D PAG E S Meet the

Team

Producing six issues of 14 community magazines per year is no easy feat. Our goal from the very beginning has been to create local magazines with content that people actually want to read. Luckily for us, we have an all-star squad that works together to make this vision a reality. Behind each issue is our close-knit team – editors who collect the stories, production leaders who work with our valued advertisers, photographers who capture the perfect moment, and graphic designers who make it all look pretty. And while we have different personal interests, all of us here at ZCode have one thing in common: we are passionate about what makes each of these North County communities so special. It’s because of you that we do what we do. Thank you for inviting us into your home and being a loyal reader of 92081 Magazine. We look forward to bringing you exciting community news for many more years to come.

DERRICK BREAUX | Publisher I’ve always found it rewarding to build things. I like the process just as much as I enjoy the end result. It’s great to see each issue of the magazines grow from concept to hard copy. My typical day at the office consists of interacting closely with the editorial, production, graphics, and sales teams.

LAINEY KRAL | Associate Editor I joined the phenomenal ZCode team two years ago, and the best part of my job is the opportunity to talk to all of you. I love learning about the individuals, families, and organizations that make our communities so special. A North County native currently living in North Park, I spend my weekends hanging out with friends and family, diving into fantasy novels, and riding other people’s horses.

RANDI CANTRELL | Associate Editor Like a lot of my fellow ZCoders, I was born and raised in San Diego. I recently celebrated my first wedding anniversary and my second anniversary of working on the ZCode team.

You can find me huddled over the latest edits or planning out our upcoming issues with one of my color-coded spreadsheets. Out of the office, I’m usually searching for that perfect cup of coffee, lifting heavy stuff at the gym, reading a good book, or running interference between my dog and cat, whose friendship is still a work-in-progress thing.

SHYANNE LOPEZ | Associate Editor Born in Los Angeles and raised in Murrieta, I’m somewhat of a newcomer to San Diego. Luckily, joining the fantastic team of creatives at ZCode has really allowed me to learn and love so much about this beautiful city I now call home. When not in the office searching for cool stories and people to feature, I can be found tending my succulent garden, “discovering” a new brewery, or taking selfies with my dog.

SAMANTHA EDWARDS | Editorial Assistant I was born and raised in North County San Diego and after spending five years away, I don’t think I’ll ever be leaving again! It has been a dream come true for me to join the ZCode team. In the office you can find me furiously typing away or sifting through piles of paper proofs. Outside of the office I’m usually baking, writing, drinking wine, walking my dog, or spending time with family and friends.

20 • 92081 MAGAZINE.COM • December 2016 | January 2017

JESSICA BREAUX | Director of Business Development I am a native San Diegan and I couldn’t imagine working, playing, and raising my family anywhere else. I spend most of my evenings and weekends being a soccer mom of three. At the ZCode office one can usually find me juggling lots, just as I do at home. If I’m not at the office pushing paperwork you will find me out networking in our communities.

MARIA FERNANDEZ | Graphic Designer I was born and raised in Mexico where I was surrounded by the love of my big family and friends. Before moving to San Diego I lived in Washington state where I worked at JWT Inside and the University of Washington. I am passionate about graphic design, and I love to connect with the community through my design. It’s a pleasure to be doing what I love at ZCode, a place that has become an extension of my family. I like spending time with my family, hiking, reading, and loud laughter.

SHARI CANETE | Graphic Designer I have strong ties to Canada, but San Diego has always been my home. And I feel very fortunate to be part of the ZCode family. In the office, I’m the one clacking away on the keyboard trying to find the perfect color combo. Out of the office, I’m obsessing over ancient alien theories, running madly outdoors, enjoying San Diego cuisine, or taking my big fur-baby on adventures around the neighborhood. And I’m a huge coffee fiend.

HEATHER LOCKWOOD | Production Coordinator I am a mother to three wonderful children, and a wife to the love of my life of 20 years, with over 10 pets – dogs, cats, guinea pig, and a bird. In my free time, I enjoy making and fixing jewelry for friends and family. I’m known in the office as “Lockwood” and can usually be found sending emails and being the liaison between our marketing and graphics departments. I love seeing the magazines printed knowing I helped make it happen.

ALICIA COUNTRYMAN | Photographer I was born and raised in Irving, TX, but I was a bit of a nomad after high school before eventually settling in North County San Diego. I’ve always been an artistic and creative person in some form or another my whole life. I’m just about to finish my first year with ZCode Media, and I’ve loved meeting, connecting, and photographing the wonderful people who are featured in these magazines. I’m proud to help shine a light on these amazing people in our communities. When I’m not busy being a photographer, I’m probably in the darkroom at MiraCosta College or spending time with my husband and our two “fur-babies.”

Exploring HISTORY THE VISTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY BRINGS HISTORY TO LIFE photos by Alicia Jeanne Photography 22 • 92081 MAGAZINE.COM • December 2016 | January 2017

T

he Vista Historical Society has a colorful past of its own, especially in the case of its museum – from

the struggle to find an original location and opening the first museum, to moving 13 years later and reestablishing itself in a new home. The history museum has been located at Rancho Minerva since 2009, but there is hope for a future downtown museum and to turn the current site into its own house museum reflecting the history of that particular site. Regardless of where the museum is located, the historical society continues in its mission to discover, collect, record, and preserve historical artifacts and to bring those materials to the Vista community. We chat with Vista Historical Society President Carolyn Chiriboga and Director Jack Larimer to learn more.

Q&A

WITH

VISTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY PRESIDENT

Carolyn Chiriboga AND DIRECTOR

Jack Larimer

CAN YOU GIVE US A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE VISTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY AND MUSEUM? WHEN WAS IT FOUNDED AND BY WHOM? The Vista Historical Society was formed in 1967 as the Vista Ranchos Historical Society under the direction of its first president Cloyd Sorensen, Jr. Its purpose was to support the City of Vista’s acquisition of the Rancho Buena Vista and surrounding areas so that the City could build a City Hall and the historical society could have a museum. The project failed.

The historical society then began looking for another home. The search ended when we opened our first museum at 651 East Vista Way. We were in that building, which was leased from the City, from 1994 to 2007 when the City wished to build a fire station at that location. The City acquired Rancho Minerva in 2008 from the Vista Unified School District for us, and we opened our current Vista history museum there in September of 2009.

PLEASE GIVE US A BIT OF HISTORY BEHIND THE MUSEUM BUILDING WHERE YOU ARE HEADQUARTERED. Nick Huntalas came to this country from Greece in 1902. He settled in Bakersfield working for the railroad as a construction foreman. In about 1911, he and several other Greek railroad workers founded the Greek American Land Co. They bought several hundred acres of land in the Vista area including the site of his ranch. He bought most of the company from the others in 1913.

Unfortunately, due to the lack of ground water to tenants until construction began in 2005; the in Vista, the area produced crops that needed school opened in 2007. The City acquired the less water such as barley. In 1916, he decided house in 2008, and the historical society located to go back to Greece to find a wife. Instead he there in 2009. Since then we have constructed was introduced to a Greek immigrant girl by a pergola and a large multi-use building on the a cousin in Patterson, NJ. They were married site. In October of this year, the building was three days later. They remained married for placed on the State of California Register of the rest of their lives. They settled on the ranch Historic Resources. in 1918, naming it Rancho Minerva. They had three children – Bill, Anne, and Ted. When WHAT IS THE MISSION OF THE VISTA water came to Vista for irrigation with the HISTORICAL SOCIETY? formation of the Vista Irrigation District in 1923, The mission statement of the Vista Historical and the completion of the infrastructure in 1926, Society is as follows: “The society is a the Huntalases planted citrus and avocado nonprofit corporation which is concerned groves. They were very successful. In 1933, with the discovery, recording, collecting, they hired Mr. Deardorf to build their house. He had patented a method of building adobe walls and used that method. A new kitchen was added in the VISTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY PRESIDENT early 1950s by Duran and Duran, a local contracting firm. The couple lived there until they died, Nick in 1980, his wife, Name: Carolyn J. Chiriboga Bessie, in 1992. The two Community: Vista since 1952 surviving children decided to subdivide the property, Education: B.A. degree but instead the Vista Unified School District Family: Four children, nine took the site by eminent grandchildren, four great-grandchildren domain in anticipation of a future middle school. The Hobbies & Interests: Volunteering, district rented the house reading, and the theater

and preservation of historical facts, properties, and other materials regarding the history of Southwestern United States, particularly the settlement and development of this region in San Diego County. Also, preserving and perpetuating for public benefit those artifacts, historical objects, and documents for all to see.”

WHY DO YOU THINK THIS ORGANIZATION IS AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE VISTA COMMUNITY? The Vista Historical Society is the guardian of Vista’s past, present, and future. Hopefully, our children and children’s children will be visiting the museum to explore and learn of Vista’s history.

Without the society and museum, the past will be lost to future generations. According to our treasurer, Michele Moxley, “So many people made this town into what it is today, and we need to preserve the history of how this all came about.

This is what the historical society strives to do.”

WHAT ARE THE SHORT-TERM AND LONG-TERM GOALS OF THE VISTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY? Our short-term goal is two-fold. First, to ensure our financial health in order to maintain and expand

December 2016 | January 2017 • 92081 MAGAZINE.COM • 25

C O V E R F E AT U R E

our museum to educate the city about our history. Secondly, to expand our programs and displays to interest everyone. Our long-term goal is to fund a new site for a downtown museum and turn our current site into a house museum reflecting the history of the site.

HOW DOES THE ORGANIZATION STAY CONNECTED WITH THE VISTA COMMUNITY? DOES THE SOCIETY HOST OR PARTICIPATE IN REGULARLY OCCURRING EVENTS? The society holds several large events on the museum grounds. We annually host an ice cream social, and this year we successfully added vendors to the event. Later in the summer we hold a barbeque, which this year included us using our newly constructed barbeque pit. We also hosted a very successful get-together for the Vista Chamber of Commerce. We hold our Christmas Tea and our annual Hall of Fame meeting at outside venues. The society participates in both tractor shows at the Antique Gas and Steam Engine Museum, the Vista Strawberry Festival, and Oceanside Harbor Days. We also give historical talks for interested groups.

DO YOU HAVE ANY UPCOMING EVENTS OR FUNDRAISERS YOU’D LIKE TO SHARE WITH 92081 MAGAZINE READERS?

IF YOU COULD GRANT ONE WISH FOR THE VISTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY, WHAT WOULD IT BE?

On Dec. 11, we will host our annual Christmas Tea at the Gloria McClelland Center. The free event is open to the public. Our 50th anniversary is on Aug. 11 next year, and we will be planning a celebration for that as well. Stay tuned for more information on that!

According to most of the board of directors that wish would be two-fold: that more of the community of Vista would become more involved as docents, volunteers, and donors; and that we could expand our museum to be able to display more of our artifacts.

DOES THE VISTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY NEED VOLUNTEERS? IF SO, WHAT KINDS OF VOLUNTEERING POSITIONS ARE AVAILABLE AND HOW CAN PEOPLE SIGN UP AND GET INVOLVED?

ARE THERE ANY FUN FACTS ABOUT VISTA HISTORY THAT OUR READERS MIGHT FIND INTERESTING OR AMUSING?

Yes, we definitely could use more docents to help at the museum, and volunteers are always needed and welcome at our other annual events. Just call our office at 760-630-0444 to find out what is needed and to volunteer.

BESIDES VOLUNTEERING, WHAT OTHER WAYS CAN COMMUNITY MEMBERS GET INVOLVED WITH THE VISTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY? By supporting our events, and of course, donations and bequests of any amount are definitely appreciated.

HOW DOES THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY FUND ITS PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS?

WHEN AND WHERE DOES THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY MEET?

We fund our museum with memberships, grants, donations, bequests, and by renting our grounds for private events such as weddings, reunions, and birthday parties.

The board of directors meets the second Tuesday of each month except December at the museum. The society membership holds a meeting once a year in May or June.

26 • 92081 MAGAZINE.COM • December 2016 | January 2017

According to John Cosh, prominent member of the community, now deceased, when the Security National Bank was first built in 1954, the water table was so high that when they opened, the water vapor had rusted all the safety deposit boxes.

Also, according to Carolyn Chiriboga, née Pope, on Dec. 12, 1967, when the very rare occurrence happened and it snowed in Vista, Mr. Robert Pope, her father and owner of Sports and Photo in downtown Vista was caught without film in his cameras. So, early that morning he ran out of the house in his pajama bottom and slippers, with a coat thrown on and ran down to his store. Someone who was also out of film saw the door open, ran in, and that was the start of a parade of customers for the next six hours! Mr. Pope laughingly apologized for his informal attire. ¢

A Heart for Helping Camryn Martin Serves Local Students to Ensure They Don’t Go Hungry

Name: Community: Family: Hobbies:

Camryn Martin Vista Parents – Brian and Becky Martin; Older sister – Madison Dance and camping

amryn Martin first heard about the food pantry for students from a program at Madison Middle School. With the help of her family and Vista Teen Outreach (VTO), Camryn established a food pantry at her school, Vista Magnet Middle School. Today, Camryn ensures the food pantry stays stocked and students do not go hungry.

“If a student needs food to eat at home, they can go to our school’s counseling office, and they will help them get food,” explained Camryn. Students remain anonymous and are allowed to restock as often as necessary. All the donated supplies for the food pantry at the middle school come from Vista Teen Outreach, the nonprofit organization that serves 14 schools to coordinate the supply and delivery of the food and personal hygiene items.

“I originally started the pantry to complete my Girl Scout Silver Award,” Camryn said. “Along the way, I learned that not all kids have access to food at home.” A Girl Scout since the age of four, Camryn earned her Silver Award in 2016 and has now set the goal of achieving the Gold Award, the highest award in Girl Scouts.

The North County Philanthropy Council recently honored Camryn with the 2016 Volunteer of the Year award. “I am very excited and honored to be able to get this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,” she acknowledged. “It’s been rewarding to realize I’ve helped kids and helped recruit others to help in the community too.”

Camryn encouraged anyone who would like to get involved. “They can donate items at any VTO food drive or at one of the local businesses who have VTO collection bins.” Cash donations and new volunteers are always welcome, too.

“I have been running the pantry for just over two years,” Camryn shared. “I am enjoying my volunteer work and would love to continue volunteering.” She is also involved with the BEWISE program, Better Education for Women in Science and Engineering, and the Associate Student Body. Long term, Camryn is looking forward to college and medical school to become an anesthesiologist.  Group: Mission:

ICE SKATING

THROUGH SAN DIEGO Discover One (Or More!) of San Diego’s Many Ice Skating Rinks This Winter

by SAMANTHA EDWARDS

T

here aren’t many places in the world where you can lace up your skates and glide along the ice, palm trees swaying in the Pacific Ocean breeze, and then step off the rink and onto the beach in the middle of winter. Such is the case, however, at the iconic Hotel Del Coronado’s Skating by the Sea beachfront ice rink. Not only are you able to enjoy the sound of waves lapping at the shore but you will likely be swept up in the wintery cheer of it all – twinkling lights, festive music, and hot cocoa to start.

But the Hotel Del isn’t the only place to ice skate this winter. Our beautiful city is home to several special holiday rinks as well as a number of rinks open yearround. Indoor ice rinks offer a variety of fun activities all year long, including public skating sessions, figure skating lessons, ice hockey leagues, broomball, ice polo, curling, and more. Some, like Escondido’s IcePlex, even have special winter-themed events to help get you in the holiday mood.

While year-round rinks let you bundle up in thick socks and scarves even in the middle of July, San Diego’s holiday rinks are nothing short of magical.

Viejas Outlet Ice Rink, for example, is a seasonal favorite and boasts the title of Southern California’s largest outdoor ice rink (even said to be bigger than the one at Rockefeller Center), where guests can enjoy shopping, entertainment, and a holiday water show all in one place.

Poway’s Community Winter Festival features not only ice skating, but s’mores, fun decorations, and even sledding!

Or you might check out the brand new outdoor rink at Point Loma’s Liberty Station, with all proceeds benefiting the Peckham Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders at Rady Children’s Hospital San Diego. How’s that for holiday spirit?

2017 Real Estate Market Projections A

lways around this time of the year we start wondering what is going to happen next year. Well, we aren’t the only ones. The experts feel the same way and we start seeing the projections that they are predicting.

We always turn to the C.A.R. Vice President and Chief Economist Leslie Appleton-Young to see what her opinion is. In the C.A.R. 2017 California Housing Market Forecast she stated, “With the California economy continuing to outperform the nation, the demand for housing will remain robust even with supply and affordability constraints still very much in evidence.

The net result will be California’s housing market posting a modest increase in 2017.”

C.A.R. President Pat “Ziggy” Zicarelli also spoke in this same article. He stated, “Next year, California’s housing market will be driven by tight housing supplies and the lowest housing affordability in six years.”

Interest rates always factor into the projections. As we all know, the interest rates are historically low and will remain historically low even if there is a slight rise in interest rates. The experts are saying a 4.0% interest rate will be the norm, which is up from the 3.6% interest rates we are seeing as a norm in 2016.

V

ista Unified School District (VUSD) celebrated its 100th birthday at a fundraising dinner at Shadowridge Golf Club in early October.

Superintendent Devin Vodicka spoke about the achievements of the schools within the district, as well as individual students and teachers.

Among the district’s achievements cited

by Vodicka were the September selection of Jenny Anderson as one of five San Diego County teachers of the year and a $10 million, five-year “high school of the future” grant won in September

by Vista High School through XQ: The Super School Project. Other achievements include Rich Alderson, Board of Education President and STEM teacher and coach at the Casita Center for Technology, Science,

and Math, being named one of five California Teachers of the Year. Anne Fennell, head of the performing arts department at Mission Vista High School, was celebrated for being named one of 10 finalists in the nation for the 2016 Music Educator Awards by the Recording Academy and Grammy Foundation. Superintendent Vodicka commented, “It is a great reflection of the quality of teachers we have in the district.”

Rancho Buena Vista High School student Cassie Molano was given recognition for being Rich Alderson selected as a Gates Millennium Scholar and recipient of a full college scholarship through the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. In addition, a scholarship fund was started at the event with $3,000 raised to go to graduating high school seniors. For more information on the achievements of VUSD visit www.vistausd.org. ¢
