Memorial Day
Distance Learning - Last week of School for the 2019-20 School Year
Student Report Card Access
In the interest of social distancing, we are directing parents to use the ParentVue system to retrieve your student’s report card information. The report card can be viewed and printed from this system on May 29th or after.
This remote retrieval option will allow ease of access and also provides a cost effective alternative to traditional printing and mailing of student report cards. If an official hard copy of the report card is necessary, you may contact your child’s school directly to make arrangements to pick up a printed copy once social distancing restrictions are lifted.

- If you have activated access to ParentVUE, all you need to do is enter the username and password you established when you activated your ParentVUE account.
- If you have not activated access to ParentVUE, enter the activation code that was given to you at the beginning of the year. Once you enter the activation code, follow the directions in setting up your own username and password.
- If you do not have your activation code, please contact our school’s office to obtain your ParentVUE activation code. Each parent has their own activation code. Therefore, if both parents/legal guardian would like access to ParentVUE, you will each need to individually contact the office. The school’s number is (916) 683-3073.
Once you activate your Synergy ParentVUE account with the one-time activation code, this will give you access to all report cards and other communication throughout your child’s K-12 education in the Elk Grove Unified School District.

This sure wasn’t how I expected my first year at Donner to be! It was still a wonderful year and I enjoyed every minute! Plus, the Donner library gained hundreds of books thanks to the book fair’s success! Whether we’re in the library or at home, I’m always grateful to be apart of the Donner Family. I have loved getting to know our amazing students. I couldn’t be more proud of how they have handled the turn of events this year. I miss you all so much!
Gratefully,
Mrs. Arozena
2019-20 Yearbooks
2020-2021 School News
At this time, our school will remain on a year-round 4 track calendar. It will be necessary to make some involuntary track changes. These track changes will be instituted based on registration date and time. Although we do not like to make involuntary track changes, it is required so that we are able to maintain as many students as possible on our campus. Every effort is made to avoid “offloading” students to other schools. As we work through the process of assigning children’s teachers for the upcoming school year, every attempt will be made to accommodate our families’ schedules and requests in regard to specific tracks.
Track change request forms for the 2020-21 school year are being accepted via email at mailto:DonFrtOff@egusd.net These requests are honored based on space availability on a particular track and by date/time in the order received. http://blogs.egusd.net/donner/2020/04/21/track-change-request-2020-2021/
Please use this form to share with us any information you wish us to have during these times. Please look for additional communication from us at the end of June regarding how and when class assignment notification will be made available.
