10th Grade Parents:  Mark Your Calendars

All members of the Class of 2015 (10th graders) will be taking the California High School Exit Exam on March 12th and 13th.  Passing the CAHSEE is a graduation requirement.  It is very important that ALL 10th graders are in attendance on the testing days.  Please do not schedule any trips or appointments on those day.   Preparation for these test has been going on all year.  Make sure you remind your student to do their very best on the exams. 

From The Athletic Department

Concerning Student Athletic Bags and Equipment -  Parents, please understand the main office cannot store, nor be responsible for sports bags and equipment during the school day.  Bags and equipment that are left in the office become a safety hazard as well as a security issue.  All student athletes have been notified by their coaches to bring their equipment to the team locker rooms before school each day.  Thank you for your understanding.
 
 
 

From The Attendance Office

Tardies are highly disruptive to the learning process. Please make sure your student has allowed plenty of time to get to school on time. Excused tardies would include medical, dental and court appointments, etc. A doctor/dental or a court document must be presented to the attendance office in order to clear the tardy. You may fax the excused note to: 858-571-3457. Unexcused tardies would include car trouble, oversleeping, traffic, power outage, parent’s fault, parent’s fault, etc.
 
Reminder to all parents: Students who become ill during the school day MUST visit the Health Office for assessment. If is determined that a student needs to go home, parents will be contacted and the Health Office staff will issue the Blue Slip.
 
Parents, please remember the front office is short-staffed and does not have office monitors to deliver messages to students.  Please know that if there is any type of EMERGENCY (i.e. hospitalization, death in the family, deployment etc.) the attendance office staff will assist the parent as needed.
