What's Going On In The World of Sequoia?
Welcome Back to Sequoia!
As we draw close to the start of another exciting school year, I want to welcome back all of our current Sequoia family members and extend a special welcome to our new 6th grade families and new families that have enrolled at Sequoia. Every Sequoia community member adds a special piece to our outstanding school. Throughout the year, I will be sending out newsletters on various events, activities and news updates related to Sequoia and the Conejo Valley Unified School District. Feel free to forward this newsletter to friends and family members.
