A Message from Mrs. Wall
Happy New Year! I know we are all hoping that 2021 will bring us some better and more normal days. It is my sincere hope that you had a wonderful holiday season with your family, filled with joy, rest, and relaxation together. I am really looking forward seeing our students on Monday, January 4.
It is my sincere hope that we will be able to keep our students and staff on campus healthy in 2021...and we need your support to do so!

- Diarrhea
- Body aches
3. If your child has been in close contact with anyone after December 24, who (later) tested positive for COVID-19, please DO NOT send them to school on Jan. 4.
4. If your child will be absent on Jan. 4, please call the front office - (805) 492-3565 - and leave a detailed message [child's first and last name, reason for absence, and the best phone number for us to reach you].
Someone from our office will return your call to discuss required quarantine (if necessary) protocols and timelines, and available options for your child's participation in school from home (only if quarantine is required).
Thank you, Parents/Guardians, you are the first line of defense for keeping our school community safe and healthy, and we sincerely appreciate your support.
We are in this TOGETHER!
