PTSA Donations Needed
Our PTSA has only brought in about a third of the normal operating funds we usually receive to run this year, and it is now starting to affect our Programs. We have several things left in the year and we need help to make them happen. If you haven’t donated yet this year, or if you are in a place to be able to donate more, we would appreciate your help. You can donate through our Paypal account or through Totem. Items left this year include Scholarships , Service Awards, Student Testing Snacks, Graduation Funds, and the Staff and Teacher Appreciation Luncheon.

Drop Off and Pick Up Reminders
Mask Reminder
As was shared in Dr. Jason Peplinski’s February 28 message to our community, we wish to remind everyone that as of now, the indoor face mask mandate in schools for staff and students has been lifted. The California Department of Public Health strongly encourages the wearing of face masks.
Anyone (staff and students) may opt to or not to wear face masks at school (indoors and outdoors) as they wish. We will respect whatever choice each person makes. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding.
Thank you,
Dr. Hani Youssef Assistant Superintendent
Educational Services Department

Freshman Counselor Meetings
Hello everyone!
To date, I have had the opportunity to have 20-minute meetings with over 180 wonderful families regarding a 4-year plan, A-G requirements, and School Connectedness! I currently have about 40 more meetings scheduled, which would bring the total to just about half of the 9th grade class of 2025. My goal is to meet with all of our Freshman families! If we haven't yet met, or are not scheduled to meet, please use the link below to choose a date and time.
