Consistent attendance builds responsibility, character and readiness for the future. From February 17 through March 6, 2026, all Allegiance STEAM Academy students (TK–8) have the opportunity to be entered into a special drawing — simply by demonstrating consistency and commitment.
Students who meet this expectation will be entered into a drawing for a Family Fun Night at an Ontario Reign hockey game in a private suite with food included. Thanks to the generous support of BCM Group, Inc. Construction Management, two families from our Chino campus and two families from our Fontana campus will win.
- Students will 100% attendance from February 16 through March 6, 2026 will be entered into a random drawing
- Each winning family may bring up to four family members.
- Fontana Winners will attend Wednesday, March 11
To qualify, students must have: • Zero absences (No excused or unexcused) • Zero tardies • Zero early pickups Short-term Independent Study may be utilized for unavoidable absences. Contact the attendance office to learn more.
At ASA, attendance is more than a requirement — it is preparation for college, career and life readiness. Let's work together to help students understand that consistency matters.
Let’s show up — together. |
We know many of our Fontana families have been asking about the installation of the play structure and shade structure. Per our Facilities Use Agreement with the Fontana Unified School District, these projects are the responsibility of the district.
The latest update from FUSD indicates that the plans are still with civil engineers and must reach 80% completion before being submitted to the Division of the State Architect (DSA) for approval. The district is awaiting confirmation from their architect on next steps.
We will continue to share updates as soon as we receive them. Thank you for your patience as we work with FUSD to ensure these much-anticipated improvements move forward for our Wolves. |

This Week’s Social Emotional Learning(SEL) Skill: Motivation 🌟
Motivation is the inner drive that helps us start, keep going, and do our best — even when something feels hard. Motivation can come from inside you (wanting to learn, improve, or feel proud) or outside you (encouragement, rewards, or goals). Motivation helps us practice, problem-solve, and not give up when we make mistakes. When we stay motivated, we grow stronger and more confident learners. 💪💚
💬 Character Skill Reflections: - What is something you feel motivated to do, and why does it matter to you?
- What helps you stay motivated when something feels challenging or frustrating?
- Who or what can help motivate you at school when you are feeling stuck or tired?
If you have any questions or would like counseling support for your child, you can reach Mr. Thornhill at (909) 258-9937 or via email at aodhan.thornhill@asathrive.org
Counseling Resources🧠 |
Motivation helps us keep trying, even when something feels hard. Here are a few ways families can support motivation at home (TK–8th Grade):
1️⃣ Set Small Goals Break big tasks into smaller steps so progress feels achievable.
2️⃣ Celebrate Effort Praise trying, not just results. Effort builds confidence and growth.
3️⃣ Positive Encouragement Use words like, “You can do this,” and “Keep going!”
4️⃣ Choice & Ownership Let children choose how or when to complete a task to build independence.
5️⃣ Model Motivation Show persistence by talking through challenges and how you keep going.
Supporting motivation at home helps our Wolves build confidence, perseverance, and a love of learning. 🐺⭐ |
