A Note from the Principal
It is already August and we are getting ready to head back to school. I am sure for most of you, it feels like it was June 3, you blinked and here we are starting the 22/23 school year. Summer vacation just never seems long enough. I hope that you were all able to get some much needed rest and fun! I can't wait to hear all of the summer stories from our students very soon.
The Nicolas Valley staff has been working hard to prepare for this new school year. We can't wait to see everyone back on campus, in their classrooms. It is always so exciting to see everyone's smiling faces after being away for a couple of months. We look forward to a successful school year!
Don't forget to update your Infinite Campus Parent Portal, especially with a working email and phone number, so that you are able to receive all of our school and district's important updates. You will be able to check your child's portal on Thursday, August 11 after 4pm in order to see who his/her teacher is this year. And we will see everyone back here on Monday, August 15. This first day of school is a modified day, so plan accordingly for pick up.
Please note: Change in start and end times this year!
Gates open at 8:35 and school begins promptly at 8:50. The school day ends at 3:15pm on regular days and 12:55pm on modified days. See you very soon!
Parents will be allowed to walk their children to the classroom door on the first day of school this year. (TK and Kindergarten parents will attend a brief "orientation" with their student on the first day, and then leave them to complete their school day.) Beginning on Tuesday, August 16, all adults will have to follow the visitor/volunteer process to be able to enter campus. You will not be able to enter through the gates with the students. Our number one priority is student safety!
Sincerely,
Ms. Harman and Mrs. O'Brien
