Message from the President

On behalf of the PA Executive Team, I want to extend my deepest gratitude to the entire Los Encinos community for your unwavering support and dedication. Time and again, our school has thrived because of the generosity of parents, grandparents, and alumni who freely share their time, talents, and resources.

Signature events such as Book Buddies, the Halloween Festival, Game Night, Sports Day, and the unforgettable Spring Gala were made possible only through your enthusiastic involvement. Other cherished traditions in support of the teachers and staff, such as Teacher Appreciation Day (when we pamper the teachers during a student-free day), and Souper Mondays (when we deliver soups for the faculty to warm their hearts during winter months), strengthen the bonds that make our community so vibrant and connected.

As a small school, Los Encinos relies on this spirit of participation, and your commitment continues to ensure that beloved traditions flourish while new initiatives take root and succeed.

For instance, we successfully launched a new line of spiritwear! You can always order the latest fashions at shop.les.school. It’s where Everest shops!

Finally, I want to acknowledge my fellow executive board members—the vice-presidents of our various departments—whose partnership and dedication make everything we do possible. Together, we are sustaining the unique spirit of Los Encinos for our children, and for that I am truly grateful. I am also delighted to share that our PA Executive Team will remain together for one more year, and we look forward to continuing this important work alongside all of you.

Warmest regards,

Missy Fox
PA President
