Hello Seco Families,
We are conducting a brief survey to see if there is interest in the possibility of providing transportation from Arroyo Seco to the Boys and Girls Club's after school program in Newhall for the 2019-20 school year. Parents of current 7th graders, please take a minute to complete the survey: https://forms.gle/wJaBLRvxBMi8NLRW7
There is no school next week, April 1-5, due to Spring Break. We hope this is an opportunity for your students to spend time with family and friends and recharge their batteries for the rest of the semester.
Our second annual mattress fundraiser is coming up in April. Last year's event was a big success. Check out the flier below for more information.
Summer school information is now available on the district website: https://www.hartdistrict.org/apps/pages/summer-school.
