Principal's Message
Principal Dr. Lars Nygren

Dear Cabrillo Middle School Community,
It is with great excitement that I welcome you to a new school year at Cabrillo Middle School! Our Mariners have so much to be proud of, and I am thrilled to share that our students have made measurable academic gains in both English Language Arts and mathematics. These results reflect the hard work of our students, the dedication of our teachers, and the support of our families.
This year, our teachers are continuing to strengthen their craft through ongoing professional development focused on high quality instruction, effective assessment practices, and meeting the needs of all learners. By investing in our professional growth, we ensure that Cabrillo students receive the very best education, one that prepares them not only for high school, but for success far beyond it.
At Cabrillo, we believe every student deserves to learn in an environment where they feel safe, supported, and inspired to do their best. We value strong partnerships with parents and guardians, and we invite you to stay involved and connected throughout the year. Whether through volunteering, attending school events, or simply checking in on your child’s progress, your involvement makes a difference.
I look forward to an incredible year of learning, growth, and achievement. Let us work together to make 2025–26 our most successful year yet.
Best,
Lars Nygren, Ed.D.
Proud Principal
Cabrillo Middle School
