We are moving into our new school year with purpose and productivity! Here are some websites your child can use at home (with WiFi) or the local library (Luck Library or SB County Library). The first two websites ae provided by the District and require student log ins (your child should know theirs, or ask their teacher). The last two websites are free.

We will be releasing a Student Code of Conduct soon.  Please click the “Documents” tab if you would like to review the draft and share any comments.

Our middle school athletic season has begun, and our middle school students are so enthusiastic about our after-school sports program!  Our girls’ volleyball coach, Ms. Lupe Flores, is leading our girls to great feats on the volleyball court. We are still looking for a volunteer middle school Coed Flag Football coach! The short 6-week season begins soon, please call or email if you are interested.

We are also recruiting parents to join our English Learners Advisory Council (ELAC), and our School Site Council.

We appreciate your support! Finding ways to be involved with your child’s school and education will support their achievement. We need new members in our English Learners parent group, and also our School Site Council. Your child’s teacher may need in-class support or field trip chaperones. We need after-school athletic coaches. Our two parent groups, Home and School Club and Dual Immersion Parents, meet monthly. Come out and get involved!

We hope to hear from you!
