REMINDER: There is no school on Monday, May 26, in recognition of Memorial Day. 🇺🇲
Today, we honor Harvey Milk—an advocate for equality, a leader in civic life, and one of the first openly gay elected officials in the United States. His legacy reminds us of the power of courage, voice, and hope.
Meet ESUSD Sweethearts Stephanie and Joey Baynes! 💙
These two met during their senior year at El Segundo High School. They started leaving flowers on each other’s car windshields every morning! Now, they’ve been together for 26 years.
They got married in 2012 and now have two sons together—both of whom will one day attend ESHS!

Our Center Street Cougars recently wrapped up their CARE assembly series with a focus on the fourth and final pillar: Excellence! 💫
To bring this pillar to life, CSS’s amazing teachers performed a fun and engaging skit that showed what Excellence looks like in action—picking up trash even if it isn’t yours, cleaning up quickly after recess, and lining up right away.
They also took time to recognize students who consistently show Excellence in their actions and choices every day.
It was a joyful and inspiring celebration where everyone had fun, learned valuable lessons, and left motivated to keep showing their best!
