As we head into winter break, Alta Loma Junior High is proud to partner once again with Warrior for Children to support their annual “Gift the Joy” Toy Drive.
All this week (December 15–19), our Warrior community will be collecting new, unwrapped toys and gifts to support children and teens navigating trauma in our surrounding communities, including San Bernardino, Los Angeles, Orange, and Riverside counties. Warrior for Children is on track to serve more than 3,000 children this year, and your generosity makes that possible.
✨ A Special Focus on Teens
This year, there is a significant need for items geared toward teens, an age group that is often overlooked during toy drives. As a junior high campus, we have a unique opportunity to help meet that need. Items such as earbuds, Bluetooth speakers, art kits, self-care items, gift cards, and other age-appropriate favorites are especially appreciated—many of the same things our own students love.
🧸 How to Participate
Donate new, unwrapped toys or gifts
Drop items off in the school office or at the front gate
Collection dates: December 15–19

Together, we can help bring joy, comfort, and hope to children and teens in our community this holiday season.
With gratitude,

Good Evening, Alta Loma Junior High Families,
We want to share a few important updates related to grades and recognition for student achievement in the months ahead.
Progress Reports
The first Progress Report will be posted in the Infinite Campus Parent Portal on Friday, September 5th at approximately 4:00 PM. To view it, simply log in at bit.ly/aljhportal and click on the Documents link in the sidebar menu.
Honor Roll Update
Our Honor Roll criteria has been updated, and we want families to be aware now as students work toward their semester goals. Honor Roll is determined at the end of each semester based on final semester grades and citizenship:
Honor Roll: Semester GPA of 3.5–3.99, with no C’s, D’s, F’s, N’s, or U’s
Principal’s Honor Roll: Semester GPA of 4.0 and above, with no C’s, D’s, F’s, N’s, or U’s
End-of-Year Awards Criteria Reminder
Looking ahead to spring, we also want to clarify the criteria for our ALJH Citizenship and ALJH Scholar Awards, which are based on grades earned each quarter. By sharing this early, we hope to give students the opportunity to set goals now and stay on track throughout the year.
ALJH Citizenship Award: Outstanding citizenship in at least five classes, with no D’s or F’s in the first three quarters.
ALJH Scholar Award: GPA of 3.75 or higher, calculated from posted quarter grades (not the semester transcript GPA), with no C’s, D’s, or F’s in the first three quarters.
Please note: Honor Roll is determined by semester GPAs, while end-of-year awards use GPAs calculated from quarter grades. This means the GPA used for award eligibility may not always match the cumulative GPA shown on a transcript.
If you have any questions, please call our office at 909-484-5100.
Thank you,
Alta Loma Junior High
