WELCOME TO THE 2026-2027 SCHOOL YEAR! SCHOOL HOURS 7:55 AM - 2:23 PM EVERY TUESDAY DISMISSAL  1:23 PM

Welcome to Germain Academy!

Germain Academy not only prides itself in being a 5-Star School for Advanced Studies, but we have also been granted exemplary SAS status by LAUSD, and we are a demonstration site for schools seeking to develop their own SAS program. Several of our teachers trained with Dr. Sandra Kaplan from USC, emphasizing Depth and Complexity. The Depth and Complexity Icons are visual prompts designed to help students go beyond a surface-level understanding of a concept and enhance their ability to think critically.  These critical thinking tools help students dig deeper into a concept (depth) and understand that concept with greater complexity. 
 
Our robotics program, led by Mrs. Palacio, continues to grow, and this year it will include the Minecraft Education program. Our VEX Robotics teams will compete at Chatsworth High School and try to best their final placements in last year's competition. Mr. Chergey will continue to provide Visual Arts, Ms. Perriman will be our new music teacher, and Mr. Atmore will be back to teach PE to selected classes.  
 
Our wonderful PTA, led by Mrs. Leslie Gonzalez, provides our students with field trips and seasonal events that bring our school community together. I strongly recommend that all parents join our PTA and participate in their school-wide events as well as their fundraising efforts. It's a great experience that benefits all of our students. 
 
As you can see, lots are going on at Germain. I look forward to another great year working together with you to provide all of our students with the best possible elementary school experience. We want every student to be Ready for the World and be able to meet the challenges of the 21st-century global economy.
 
Sincerely,
Luis Lopez
