Choose Serra: 8th Grade Shadow Application


Current Middle School Parents:


Next year, your student will begin their freshman year in high school.  This is a big step for many families and, at Serra High School, we know that you want only the best for your children.  From the middle school perspective, high school can seem daunting for students and parents.  We also, know that you have a choice when it comes to where you will ultimately send your child to high school.


We would like the opportunity to let your family see first hand why Serra is the right choice for your child’s high school years.  Beginning January 31st, Serra will be opening its doors to 8th
graders and their families in our first official 8th Grade Shadow.  Based on your child’s academic and extracurricular preferences, we will match your child with a Serra student that shares the same interests.  


For example, if your child has a passion for science, journalism or yearbook we’ll be sure to match them with a Serra student enrolled in Bio Tech, newspaper or  yearbook.  Serra high school has much to offer students and this will be an opportunity for your child to experience that firsthand.

Serra Launches The First Student to Student Council Day


SAN DIEGO (NNS) -- The Navy School and Marine Corps Liaisons hosted the first Student-2-Student (S2S) Council Day at Serra High School's Media Center Jan. 7 to share ideas on how to welcome incoming students making a transition midyear.

"The S2S gathers a team of a dozen to thirty-five members of each school and that team actually welcomes brand new students to the school," said Robin Williamson, San Diego Metro School Liaison, Navy Region Southwest Point Loma. "So this could be military and non-military. It's for any new student." 


Be A Senior Exhibition Panelist


Senior Exhibitions provide our Seniors an opportunity to showcase their knowledge, skills, interests and experience at Serra High School and to show how their high school experience fits into their future goals.  The Seniors present before a panel consisting of teachers, business or community members, and parents.  

We need parents and community members to sit on Senior Exhibition Panels on Wednesday January 25 and Thursday January 26, 2012.


If you have any questions, please contact Marie Byrd, mbyrd@sandi.net -or- 858-496-8342 x231.

Girls Tennis Season Recap



The girls tennis team at Serra went all out this season, fighting to make it to CIF.  Not only did they make it to the play-offs with an impressive 14-5 record, but they also made it to the semi-finals for the first time since Coach Lorene Dabney started coaching in 2005.  This was an amazing feat that took heart, perseverance, and courage.  The girls started off every match with their spirited hand-clap, getting them pumped up!  They also took turns creating a goal for themselves, individually, which helped keep them focused.

The determination and spirit of this team is special because there were only 13 members, down from 16 in years past.  Each girl had to step up and do her part to ensure each win.  Many of the girls willingly played in both singles and doubles throughout the season, making it easy to create winning line-up.  Every practice was set up to defeat the upcoming teams, with drills, games, laughter, and hard work.  Another special characteristic of this team is that they all like each other.  There were strong friendships built all season long, with every member feeling included and that helped with the mutual respect they had for each other on the court.  

Individually, the strong doubles team of Karen Villa & Karina Chamberlain were undefeated in the first round of play during the season.  By season's end, they only had two losses, which took them to Individual CIF, where they pulled through to the third round of play.  Getting this far, earned Karen the honor of being on the ALL-CIF 2nd team for Division II!  Congratulations, Karen! Two of our singles players, Joanna Rodriguez and Cassidy Ferrell won their bid to CIF as well, and who represented Serra High with pride.  

One of the unique things Coach Dabney did this year was make all five of her seniors the captains.  Each captain divided the major tasks of the team amongst themselves making it easier to manage.  Those captains/seniors are: Ayako Bright, Rachel Fetterman, Karen Villa, Karissa Santos, and Abbey Stewart.  With the maturity and experience of these ladies, the team was strong.   The rest of the team is: Karina Chamberlain, Joanna Rodriguez, Olivia Gesikowski, Sara Gormican, Megan Hutton, Cassidy Ferrell, Kristine Ly, and Remi Ha. 

Behind every great team is a great support system.  Coach Dabney and the team would like to thank the awesome parents who help drive to matches, provide nutritious snacks, and giving moral support.  A very special thank you goes to Mr. & Mrs. Chad Chamberlain for donating brand new uniforms to the entire team.  This brought pride and confidence to the girls as they pushed themselves to improve day after day.  The uniforms look beautiful as they shine with the Serra High School colors and the girls look fantastic in them.  Thank you for such a generous gift!

Thank you to our Tierrasanta community along with the tennis community for always supporting our teams.  It's wonderful to have such a close nit group of people who love our students and are willing to assist them in any way they can.  

If you have questions about the Serra Tennis Program, you can contact Coach Dabney at ldabney@sandi.net.
