Dear Nueva Grandparents,
Happy new year! I hope that 2022 is off to a healthy, safe, and cheerful start for you and yours. It was wonderful to see many of you in November at our virtual Grandparents' and Special Friends' (GPSF) Day celebration. The excitement and enthusiasm exuded through Zoom was palpable, and it was very meaningful for our students to share the joyful learning that happens at Nueva with you. Special thanks to all who shared photos of you wearing your Nueva sunglasses and using your GPSF Day tumbler. If you'd still like to share your photo, please email gpsfd@nuevaschool.org.
On behalf of our faculty and staff, we are very grateful for your continued engagement and support of your grandchildren and our Nueva community.
Best,
Diana Chamorro
Director of Alumni Relations

SECOND GRADE HISTORY
The Nueva School campuses sit on land that was once inhabited by the Ohlone people. To learn more about and celebrate the people on whose land we learn, this fall second graders did a deep dive into the past and present lives of the Ohlone people. Their research culminated with the second annual—and first in-person!—Ohlone Conference, where students presented to each other the questions they explored, the information they learned, and what they hope to investigate next.
