Last week's "College and Career" week was an eventful school spirit week with students exploring possible college pathways and careers. Thank you so much to the parents and community members who shared about their experiences and jobs with classes so students could learn more! If you missed the opportunity to share, but want to in the future, please reach out to your child's teacher.

Don't forget to purchase your child's yearbook by visiting the link on the flyer below. Yearbooks will only be sold online this year.

This Friday our students will participate in the Kid's Heart Challenge Assembly with their class as our 6th grade teachers and students will lead groups through exercise stations! To register your student and donate, be sure to visit: heart.org/khc

The week after this is our "Spring Break" and we have no school April 11 - 15, with school resuming on Monday, April 18.

Although the majority of guidelines related to COVID-19 have relaxed, please remember that if students, staff, or volunteers have had any symptoms, the path to return to school and work is still very similar, requiring either a negative test, alternative diagnosis, or 10 day quarantine. We provide free testing for students, staff, and cleared volunteers most mornings before school. Please arrive by 7:30a.m. to test at our school for free (students, staff, and cleared volunteers only) and be sure the person is registered at www.sanjuan.edu/preregister. For updated health related safety protocols, please visit the SJUSD District's COVID-19 Guide: https://www.sanjuan.edu/quarantine.

If you have any questions, concerns, or feedback, please reach out. 916-979-8076, or kendra.shelton@sanjuan.edu.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Kendra Shelton

Principal
