FEATURE ward caring for the overall well-being of students. “This has always been important, but perhaps never more so than it is right now,” says Chad Jackson, Fairmont’s president. “Supporting our students’ social and emotional needs is key to our remote instruction.” Prepared to Reopen When Orange County schools are cleared to have students return, Fairmont will open the doors of its new San Juan Capistrano campus with a plan that ensures safety is paramount and students come first. At that time, Fairmont will be offering in-person instruction — five days a week and full days with experienced teachers, further differentiating itself from almost every other school in South Orange County.
Leveraging Lessons Learned … and Igniting Innovation The landscape of education evolved once again on July 17 when the governor issued a directive concerning when Orange County schools would be able to reopen with students on campus. While many schools struggle to keep up with the rapid changes brought about by COVID-19, the leaders of Fairmont Schools feel their five campuses — including the new preschool through grade 12 location in San Juan Capistrano — are uniquely positioned to pivot and thrive in this challenging time. Experience Plus Innovation Voted Orange County’s Best Private School for five consecutive years, Fairmont has been a leader in private school education since its founding in 1953. Nearly 70 years of experience equates to many lessons learned. When the winds of education shift, as they are right now, no school is better-equipped to respond
than Fairmont. As Orange County’s largest and oldest school group, Fairmont is poised to provide its innovative and individualized learning experience to students, regardless of the method of delivery. Ready for Remote Learning Building upon an already strong remote program, Fairmont has invested heavily in technology and training to elevate the level of instruction it can provide to students who will be learning from home this fall. Small classes, differentiated learning, and rigorous curriculum are part of its “tried and true” formula for producing successful students of all ability levels. It’s a formula that has served students well for decades, and one that has been integrated into the school’s remote learning program. Another factor that distinguishes Fairmont is the lengths its teachers and staff go to-
Fairmont’s teachers and administrators have been hard at work researching best practices for reopening, from sanitation and logistics to teacher training and technology. The school’s Reopening Task Force continues to consult extensively with medical and education experts, while monitoring local, state and federal guidelines to ensure its campuses can open safely. That plan includes everything from “the basics” (such as the use of social distancing, face coverings, and rigorous sanitation) to incorporating physical enhancements (such as the installation of touchless restroom fixtures). “We are living through very challenging times, but Fairmont’s focus hasn’t shifted,” says David Jackson, Fairmont’s Chairman. “Our students come first, and our teachers and staff have been working tirelessly to ensure everyone’s return to school exceeds expectations — regardless of whether a child learns from home or in the classroom.” Fairmont is now enrolling preschool through 12th grade students for the 2020-21 school year across its family of schools in Anaheim, Anaheim Hills, North Tustin and San Juan Capistrano.

FOUNDATIONS COGNITIVE SCHOOLS FOR STUDENTS WITH LEARNING DIFFICULTIES The Foundations program methodology is to move past the traditional concept of simply managing the symptoms of learning disabilities and, instead, address the root cause of these challenges. Based on the concept of neuroplasticity (the brain’s ability to change, heal, and grow in response to targeted training), each day, students perform cognitive exercises that have been scientifically proven to strengthen weak cognitive capabilities. In other words, the goal of Foundations is to transform the brain, establishing capabilities that did not exist and, thus, begin to instill a newfound confidence and a love of learning. By strengthening cognitive capacities, students are able to work through tasks which were once incredibly challenging for them. In addition to its scientific approach to cognitive improvement, Foundations includes state-certified reading and mathematics programs. When combined with the cogni-
tive exercises, these programs have helped many of its students achieve dramatic improvement in reading, writing, and math. INDIVIDUALIZED PROGRAM THAT PROVIDES INCLUSION IN SCHOOL ACTIVITIES For the 2020-2021 school year, Foundations will have one multi-grade elementary class, one junior high class, and one high school class. Each classroom will have a student-teacher ratio of 4:1. Each student is assessed and works at a pace and level that is appropriate for his or her particular needs. In order to ensure that students are connected socially to others in their peer group, Foundations is located on the campus of a large private school, which allows students to attend recess, lunch, and enrichment/elective classes (P.E., art, music, etc.) with mainstream students in their grade. They also have the opportunity to play on sports teams and to participate in extra-curricular school activities
offered at its partner school, such as choir, dance, cheer, clubs, etc. The high school students are offered the option to pursue a high school diploma, or to participate in a Certificate of Completion program. PARTNER SCHOOL Foundations is located on the San Juan Capistrano campus of the prestigious Fairmont Schools. The beautiful campus, spanning 66,000 square feet, includes two educational wings full of classroom space, playgrounds, gymnasium, music room, science labs, and more. For more information, or to schedule a tour visit FoundationsCognitive.org.

CAPISTRANO UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT (CUSD) AN UNWAVERING COMMITMENT TO STUDENT SUCCESS Capistrano Unified School District (CUSD) has spent the last three months building a reopening plan for the fall with the priority of providing an excellent education while ensuring the health and safety of CUSD students and school employees. On July 17, Governor Newsom announced that all schools within Orange County are required to open the 2020-21 school year using online learning ONLY. Governor Newsom made this a requirement for all counties on the state’s coronavirus monitoring list. CUSD will reopen its classrooms and campuses when the updated guidelines allow for schools to safely do so. The centerpiece of CUSD’s trustee-approved reopening plan is a robust, consistent, and engaging curriculum that aligns with the District’s core values and can be successfully delivered both in a traditional school setting and online. CUSD’s Board of Trustees approved a comprehensive online curriculum that has been vetted, used consistently with success, and delivers the
District’s core values of rigor, engagement, consistency, and flexibility. K–5 OPTIONS WHEN OC IS REMOVED FROM THE MONITORING LIST: • Students can spend 100 percent of their school time engaging in online learning or attending class on campus, or they can split their time between home and school.
pandemic this past spring. CUSD continues its commitment to excellence in curriculum and instruction. The 2020-21 school year will include an integration of mental health, emotional support, and social emotional learning.
SECONDARY OPTIONS — 6–12 WHEN OC IS REMOVED FROM THE MONITORING LIST: • Students can choose 100 percent online learning or spend half their time on campus with a flipped classroom format utilizing independent study. CUSD will ensure juniors and seniors continue to have access to the resources they need to increase their options for post-secondary life after high school.
CUSD will also continue to foster cultural diversity in partnership with the District’s Cultural Proficiency Task Force, established last fall, and with our students, families, and staff. Although CUSD is navigating unprecedented times, it remains committed to academic rigor, consistency, and providing an engaging and flexible online and classroom educational experience for all students, while protecting the safety and security of families and employees. Visit capousd.org for reopening details.
This plan provides an enriched learning curriculum compared to the distance learning initiative that was implemented quickly in response to the

When our world feels a bit upside down, it’s nice to know there are constants we can rely on. Since 1993, Marbella Farmers Market in San Juan Capistrano has remained a tried and true, go-to staple, offering fresh groceries and tasty, ready-made meals. From farm to table produce to made-to-order sushi and gourmet items, you’ll find just what you’re looking for at this local favorite in the Marbella Plaza.

As you walk through the doors, you’re immediately struck by a plethora of delicious cuisine and wonderful aromas. For foodies like myself, Marbella Farmers Market is a feast for the eyes, with a massive gourmet deli featuring Boar’s Head meats and specialty cheeses alongside signature sandwiches and fanciful paninis. Nearly two dozen unique salads, including bow tie with sun-dried tomatoes and Asian chicken are made fresh daily. Indulge in a king-sized salad bar featuring literally dozens of savory side dishes and accoutrement. Gluten free and organic options are also in abundance to accommodate nearly any diet or nutritional needs. The butcher shop highlights a variety of prime meat, poultry, fish and sausages, from marinated chicken to wagyu beef. To satiate your sweet tooth, the colorful bakery offers a substantial variety of tempting cookies, amazing cakes and freshly baked breads. In a cooking rut? Pick up one of Marbella Farmers Market’s convenient heat-and-serve meals, including poached salmon made with dill and white wine, Tuscany herbed chicken, or seared pepper-crusted ahi – all housemade daily. Party platters include signature wraps, hot and cold hors d’oeuvres, crudité and fruit and cheese options. Wine connoisseurs, craft beer aficionados and those who fancy an occasional glass must check out the impressive array of options. If you need a quick hostess or housewarming gift, Marbella offers cards, baskets and other unique pieces to appropriately celebrate that special person or event. Whether you’re an amateur chef looking for the finest ingredients, grabbing a quick cup of Joe, or feeding a famished family, Marbella Farmers Market has just what you are craving — open Monday through Sunday, from 7:30 a.m. to 8 p.m.
