CJSF
In 1967, the California Junior Scholarship Federation (CJSF) was founded to foster high standards of scholarship, service and citizenship in the middle school/junior high grades. Like CSF, CJSF emphasizes service to the school and the community while encouraging pride inscholastic achievement. In recent years the rapid growth of the California Junior Scholarship Federation (CJSF) has 
greatly strengthened CSF.

The staff from Badminton Center Court (Long Beach and San Diego) came to the Owl’s nest recently and treated some of our 8^th graders to professional lessons in badminton. Badminton incorporates many components of fitness including quickness, flexibility, footwork, agility, hand-eye coordination and- of course- cardio respiratory endurance. The main reason why badminton is growing so rapidly is because it is so much fun to play…at any age! A huge thank you goes out to Monkie, and the entire staff at Badminton Center Court, for their generous teachings and their overall dedication to the great sport of badminton. Here is a clip- take a look!

We will continue to implement our school uniform policy. This is a revised policy as of August 2015. Adherence to the ID and uniform policy is required for attendance at Hughes. There is no doubt that the uniform policy reduces student misbehavior and allows us to focus on providing a meaningful instructional program for all students. Thank you for your support in our efforts to provide a safe and orderly environment.
