Week of April 8 – 12

As you may be aware, on Monday, April 8, 2024, an extraordinary celestial event will occur in North America as a solar eclipse will cast its shadow across the continent. While San Diego County will experience a partial eclipse rather than a total one, the event is nonetheless significant. The San Diego region is expected to witness a partial eclipse that will begin around 10 a.m., peak at 11:11 a.m., and end at 12:23 p.m.

To ensure the safety and well-being of all our students and staff during this event, the Chula Vista Elementary School District (CVESD) has implemented a rainy day schedule for all schools on April 8. This means that recess and lunch activities will be conducted indoors. Parental permission is required for classrooms intending to incorporate eclipse viewing into their curriculum, and adherence to NASA’s safety standards regarding appropriate viewing gear is mandatory. 

If your child’s teacher is taking students outside to view, a waiver was sent home Friday. This waiver must be returned for your child to participate. Please check DOJO.

Our Statewide testing begins at the end of April. Please be sure your child is at school, on time, each day of testing. Please see the Olympic View testing schedule to make sure your child does not have any scheduled appointments, or family trips during this time. CLICK HERE for the schedule. A parent notification will be sent home Monday. You can also view it HERE.
