MAY 2015 • VOL. 9 • ISSUE 5 The letter of the day is "M." Clearly I've been watching too many episodes of Sesame Street with my 3-year-old daughter because I can’t seem to resist marking May’s occasions with alliteration. Moms, margaritas, music and the marina are the stars this month and our issue is full of places to go and plenty to do throughout May. Spice things up on Cinco de Mayo and meet friends and family for Mexican food at El Mariachi in San Clemente, Carlos Restaurant in Dana Point, or the Las Golindrinas location near you. Make the most of Mother’s Day by relieving mom of her management duties on the 10th and treat her to mimosas and a delicious meal at your favorite neighborhood eatery. Music will fill the marina on May 16th and 17th as the Doheny Blues Festival welcomes Bonnie Raitt, Boz Skaggs, Paul Rodgers and more to its 3 stages on the beach. From May 28th through the 31st, the Dana Point Boat Show offers ocean-lovers an opportunity to explore all things maritime, from power boats to sailboats and fishing gear to apparel. Be sure to peek at our centerfold calendar for The DISH on Memorial Day events and many other ways to make May memorable.

San Clemente Christian School students along with Principal Dr. Nicky Magnuson are featured on this month’s cover. The former Capo Beach Christian School, aptly renamed to align with its new digs in the heart of San Clemente, is excited to offer the city its first school for transitional kindergarteners through 12th graders. As a family-based school with a focus on meeting each student at his or her level, its mission is to deliver a motivating and nurturing academic and spiritual environment in the 2015-2016 academic year and beyond. Read more about San Clemente Christian School’s new campus, curriculum and plans for growth on page 10.

grams from transitional kindergarten through 9th grade to the new facility; Phase II will be implemented as high school classes are added over the next three years; Phase III will include a full buildout of the playground and outfitting of outdoor athletic training grounds. “It’s a privilege and an honor to be a part of this organization every day,” enthuses Dr. Magnuson, “We have so much to offer this community.”

COVER STORY

San Clemente Christian’s philosophy brings the “boutique school” concept to life. Offering only one small class of students for each grade level and a student-to-staff ratio of 1:3 ensures that each child’s needs are recognized. Dr. Magnuson explains, “We meet each student at his or her level; we don’t believe in ‘one size fits all,’ and we don’t let kids fall through the cracks. Our focus is to nurture our pupils spiritually and academically and imbue a strong sense of leadership within each child. One of my favorite comments from a parent was that every student gets to be a star here—that’s exactly the point!”

SAN CLEMENTE CHRISTIAN SCHOOL

Become one of the Family

BY SHELLEY HUDSON

Parents and students in South Orange County will soon have another option for private education—right in their own backyards! Capo Beach Christian School is expanding and moving to a brand new campus in the heart of San Clemente, filling the need for a rigorously academic and spiritually-grounded curriculum that spans TK through 12. The school will be renamed San Clemente Christian School and will remain a small, family-based private school dedicated to motivating and nurturing each and every child.

Founded in 2009 by parents, the school’s first enrollment was 41 students. In a few short years, that number has tripled; many grade levels are operating at maximum capacity and the demand for the type of programming offered is increasing. “Moving to San Clemente is such an exciting development,” says Principal Dr. Nicky Magnuson, “So many indicators confirm that this move is part of God’s plan. We received a generous donation in inventory from Southern California Edison, including essential equipment for a complete school. Since 70% of our families live in San Clemente, it’s an ideal scenario. We’ve had an unbelievable response— we have a waiting list for a few grades already!”

The 2015-2016 academic year will open the new campus. Each year a new grade level will be added, culminating with the first high school graduating class in 2018. As the only private school offering kindergarten through high school in the city, San Clemente Christian will become a fundamental part of the infrastructure for this rapidly-growing area. The school’s plan will roll out in three phases. Phase I will involve relocating all existing classes and pro-

Magnuson summarizes San Clemente Christian’s academic approach as “full STEAM ahead—science, technology, engineering, arts and math.”

The school promises a rich, balanced experience with weekly student-led chapel services, a surf team, field trips to Science Camp, Catalina Island and Washington, D.C. and mission trips for all middle and high schoolers. In addition, the whole student body is exposed to Greek, Latin and Spanish language classes, starting in kindergarten. Dr. Magnuson asserts, “We are part of an academic movement. We are committed to the Common Core initiative, from the ACSI standpoint of using Common Core as our floor not the ceiling. This provides building blocks for learning—it’s not just about test-taking and memorizing facts; it's about meeting every student where they are.”

The leadership component is a key principle built into the curriculum at every level as well. The school provides project-based, age-appropriate opportunities for students to demonstrate organizational leadership, with many off-site options. “We’ve had a student-initiated recycling program, a sustainable garden, and so much more,” gushes Magnuson, “The creativity of the students is boundless.”

The future of San Clemente Christian School includes “smart boards” in every classroom, video editing and computer graphics capabilities, a university-level chemistry lab, an aquaponics cultivation program and a hands-on internship program for all seniors. “Our previous expansion was made possible through the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and many donations,” relates Magnuson, “We hope to repeat this collaboration on a larger scale and develop a close partnership with our new community.”

Tickets are on sale now for the festival’s three stages of performances at the beachfront venue of Doheny State Beach in Dana Point.

Doheny Blues Festival takes pride in its introduction of new artists, and this year is no exception as it welcomes Tennessee folk artist Valerie June, as well as 12-year-old guitar wonderkid Brandon “Taz” Niederauer, who will join Otis Taylor and his band. First time performers also include Mud Morganfield, the eldest son of Muddy Waters (performing with Kim Wilson), fiery vocalist Beth Hart, The Mavericks, The Rebirth Brass Band, Carolyn Wonderland and Lurrie Bell. Continuing the tradition of importing musicians for the festival, Nico Wayne Toussaint will travel from France to Dana Point, Brazilian guitarist Igor Prado will present a blues revue on the intimate Backporch Stage, and Trickbag from Sweden will host the Official After-Party on Saturday night, May 16, at Stillwater Spirits & Sounds in Dana Point.

Doheny State Beach, a 62-acre California State Park, has been home to the Doheny Blues Festival for eighteen consecutive years and has an expansive beach, breathtaking harbor views, overnight camping and a spacious, grass park where three stages are erected. The intimate Backporch Stage allows fans to sit up close to the artists at picnic tables while enjoying a tasty selection of microbrews. Guests can also enjoy the International Food Court, eclectic Vendor Village with 50+ unique booths, Wine Lounge, and free Bike Valet.

Tickets for the 2015 Doheny Blues Festival are selling quickly, so visit DohenyBluesFestival.com for more information or call 949.360.7800.

FOOD REVIEW

BO BREW BOARD BREW ARD & BR BOAR KEEPIN' IT REAL SINCE '79

BY SHELLEY HUDSON

Board & Brew’s newest location is off and running in Laguna Niguel’s Ocean Ranch Village Center, and not a minute too soon. The eighth restaurant in the growing San Diego-OC chain started shredding and slicing in late March for a built-in following—namely, the overflow from the line-out-the-door at its San Clemente shop.

Founder Tom Powers started Board & Brew in 1979 in Del Mar with a simple idea—to provide the freshest, highest-quality food at the best value. Staying true to Tom’s formula of never cutting corners has paid off. The low-key vibe and menu of classics-with-a-twist entices customers looking for good food fast. The open-air patio, curated slate of local artisanal beers and the Bajareggae-surf setting encourages diners to hang out for a while. The restaurant is outfitted with skateboard decks, surfboards of all shapes, coastal art and a sweet fiberglass-topped bar that faces the open kitchen. The atmosphere is busy, but laid-back and fun.

I stopped in for a quick lunch and to get The Local Dish from Zen, one of Board & Brew’s owners. “We have a full-service kitchen that only prepares sandwiches,” he explains, “We’re ‘prepping’ all day because everything is fresh. Our bread is delivered every morning—in fact, we sometimes sell out of a bread option late in the day. Our roast beef is certified, grass-fed angus; we even rotate vendors throughout the year to ensure absolute freshness.” He said Board & Brew’s typical customer is difficult to identify. “We have families grabbing dinner before seeing a movie next door, businesspeople coming in for weekday lunches, kids meeting up after school, and everyone in between.”

Zen recommended I try B&B’s most popular sandwich, the Turkado. This creation was piled high with smoked turkey and topped with sliced tomato, shredded lettuce, sweet red onion, jack cheese and creamy avocado. It was served with a side of “secret sauce,” which beautifully enhanced the flavors of the whole stack. Zen said the sauce recipe was adapted from Tom’s mother’s macaroni salad dressing recipe—a sauce with a story! The sandwich was hearty and delicious. I washed it down with passionberry iced tea from the self-serve station, but next time I’ll go for an ice cold Artifex Honey Blonde.

I’m also eager to try one of the daily soup specials like the lentil-vegetable or fire-roasted tomato.
