Dear Capuchino Students and Families,
I hope this message finds you and your family well. As we embark on the 2025–26 school year, I am excited to welcome back our community of students and families. Our administrative team is committed to working together to support your child throughout their high school journey.
For our new families joining us this year, we look forward to supporting your student’s transition into high school, building community, and fostering a sense of belonging while connecting them with resources and school activities. We believe these foundations are essential in ensuring that all students feel seen and supported, while being challenged academically and held to high expectations during their time at Capuchino High School.
Our scholars will continue to develop in alignment with our Graduate Profile and the IB Learner Profile. As a school, we remain focused on advancing the goals outlined in our Action Plan for both our WASC and IB reviews, which help guide our continuous improvement.
Capuchino has served San Bruno youth and families for over 73 years, fostering learning, individual growth, and empowering our students to make a positive impact in their communities. Our student scholars are remarkable in every regard, and we thank you for entrusting us with the responsibility of supporting their growth. Our goal is for every student to graduate demonstrating the knowledge and skills necessary to be prepared for college and career, grounded in the principles of the IB Learner Profile.
As an IB World School, Capuchino offers a unique, comprehensive high school experience. This includes a rigorous and coherent academic program, intentional social-emotional support, and a deeply committed staff who foster community within each classroom. It also reflects our commitment to International Mindedness, anti-racist practices, and racial justice.
In the year ahead and beyond, we will continue to refine our curriculum, reflect on our practices, build school connectedness, and challenge assumptions to ensure each student has an equitable school experience and is well-prepared for a successful future.

Our staff is rested and rejuvenated, and we are excited to welcome back our students on August 13th. I am eager to continue learning about the incredible things our students accomplish and to connect with our family community throughout the year.
Go Mustangs!
