Spend the Summer Reading
What is better than reading for school? Reading for fun! We want to make both happen next Fall, but for now, you are on your own. Well, not really as we have a bunch of recommendations from school librarian, Ms. Turner and our friends at the Golden Gate branch of the library all summer long. Look for a deep commitment to the written word and all the pleasures, learning and worlds it opens up. Summer Reading time is here!
Congratulations 2025!
Going out in style. The Emery class of 2025 is one that will not be forgotten. Champions in the classroom and in the field, the Emery students are off to college and career, some starting work and others going to continue their scholarship work. We are grateful to the friends of our students; parents, family, community members. This day belongs to all of you. Watch out world, here comes Emery 2025!
Extended Learning for Emery Students
We are open for business this month for Summer School. Students who are credit deficient will be invited to do some Edgenuity work on their missing classes. Under the supervision of an Emery teacher, those students will do online work until they feel ready for their exams to be opened. Then our teacher will "unlock" and oversee their tests. While that is happening, we have a Summer Bridge for students who are rising 9th graders, getting an early taste in a fun, and supportive way in English, Math, Social Science and Science work. Summer learning is in season at Emery

Ready to go Cruising
Our plans for next year are already under way. We are looking to bring the Boat Cruise back as a Spartan tradition. Expect a homecoming dance in the Fall, and a Prom in the Spring, but the best way to heat up the Winter is with a journey on a Bay liner. We are polling our community now to see the interest level in a dance, dinner, adventure on the water for next year. Open to rising juniors and seniors, it's time to take the plunge!
Bring the Heat, Spartans
It is never too soon to be thinking about Fall sports. We are ready for competition to begin! Boys and girls are invited to be part of our cross country team, and our new 8-man football squad. Also it is the return of girls Volleyball, as the Lady Spartans are conditioning in preparation for their big return in August. Next year we move soccer to the Winter and add wrestling to the mix. It is the best time to be an Emery athlete
Welcome new Scholars
Our top upperclassmen will be identified later this summer and celebrated when they return to Emery as part of the prestigious California Scholarship Foundation, or CSF. Students need to earn 10 points on a scale where A's have a three point value, B's have one, and D's or F's disqualify! Students earn CSF status by doing great work every semester, and we can award students who maintain CSF status throughout their high school academic career. Look for your name, and work to bring it to this level.
Congratulations, Ms. Siegel, teacher of the year for Emery and ???
Ms. Siegel, our social science star has been recognized as Emery Unified teacher of the year for her awesome contributions to our school. With the honor comes both the applause and recognition she has earned AND she is now in the running to be one of Alameda County's teacher of the year. We are Spartan proud of you, Ms. Siegel and you are a winner in every sense of the word.
Lights, cameras, action!
Emery students get the opportunity upcoming Fall in getting on stage. Theatre class is coming back and we are signing you up for the inaugural section. This upcoming year is also going to feature a Choir section too, meaning that the Arts have a higher profile and more shows for you to be a part of (or just get a ticket for and support). Ask counselor Ricky if you still want to be part of it.
Building Career Skills at Rising Sun
We had a great time at Oakland's Rising Sun academy where young adults and older ones recreate their pathway with work in the trades as a place to be. The Spartan upperclassmen got a chance to see the interns and new hires working in the classroom (doing math!) and in the field. And many of our students had a chance to do their own work, like those working on the saw. We loved the visit and for some students, maybe a glimpse at a career opportunity
The City honors our Senior Champions
Elliyana Thornton and Jordan King finished their Emery careers in much the way that they competed in their time as Spartans as champions. The senior duo dominated at the year end tournament and took first place over another Emery squad, as the big Blue wrecking crew took three of the top four places at the tournament. Big ups to coach Ms. Wright-Crichlow and the squad. Here the city mayor and council honor our top two for their contributions to our civic pride
Fair Thee Well
Emery High is competing in the Alameda County Fair from now through mid-July. A number of Spartan artists have entered their work at the Pleasanton venue. The student's art is situated in the C building during the run of the fair, as our students compete for Blue, Gold and other colorful ribbons and awards. Here's one of our champions--Sakriye Abdhile with a handbag that is a first place winner. And there's more!
Revving up for next Year
Meet the members of the Emery Car Club. This is the inaugural team that is going to make gear heads happy. The club hopes to spread the joy of the motor vehicles with talk about cars, fixing cars and even hosting a Car Show on campus. We are looking for new team members and bring the open road to school. Stay informed about the car club and other extra curricular supports and sports happening at the home of the Spartans for 2025-26
