Names of students on the CIS marquee(Photos – Scott Phelps)
PUSD’s Center for Independent Study, aka CIS Academy, has begun recognizing students who performed very well during the first month of the year by putting their names up on the CIS marquee at the former Wilson Middle School campus.

Admirers can see these names on the southeast corner of Madre St. and Del Mar Blvd.
Natalie Moroyoqui, CIS’s Community Assistant, says “I think it’s difficult to do online studies, but these students have shown that they are capable of going above and beyond. We recognize them for their outstanding achievement, and what better way to do that than by putting their names up in lights! I think it’s important that these students know that we see their dedication and hard work, and that nothing goes unnoticed. Even though we don’t see them face to face, we see their hard work.”

My daughter who is now in her second year of college attended a year and a half at CIS. It was an incredible, positive experience for her during a difficult time in her life. Mr. Siegle and the staff served as tremendous supporters. I will always be grateful of CIS and love seeing hard working students recognized out in our community.
