Security Notice to the community:

Two security cameras were installed on campus Friday, Aug. 23. The first camera is in the front of the school and faces the parking lot/street area. The second camera is on the rear of the school and faces the

back playground gate and a partial view of the playground. During winter break, up to 10 more cameras will be installed. These cameras give a live view as well as records and saves footage.

Please obey traffic laws in and around the school.

Traffic is a challenge in our small parking lot. S. Greensview is a busy street. PLEASE SLOW DOWN. Do not use your cell phone while driving in and around the parking lot. The first week of school is always very busy. Please remind your child what lot you will be picking up in.

As a reminder…Please DO NOT park in any red marked areas. These are fire lanes and must be kept clear. Thank you.

Please do not park in marked parking spots.

Drive slowly in and around the school.

Pull all the way forward in the drop off and pick up zone.

Cell Phone and Smart Watch Policy

If your child will be bringing a cell phone, or wearing a smart watch, you MUST fill out THIS FORM. Please be sure to go over this with your child so they are clear about the policy. This policy is for the safety of all students and staff.

If you need to clear your paperwork and have your ID scanned, Ms. Linda will process your paperwork this Tuesday (Aug, 26) from 1:30 – 6 pm.

ATTENDANCE MATTERS!

DID YOU KNOW THAT IF YOUR CHILD IS OUT OF SCHOOL FOR THREE OR MORE DAYS, YOU CAN REQUEST AN INDEPENDENT STUDY CONTRACT? IF AN INDEPENDENT STUDY CONTRACT IS COMPLETED, YOUR CHILD RECEIVES ATTENDANCE CREDIT. FOR MORE INFORMATION, YOU CAN CONTACT Shelley Acosta (619-656-2030)

Students need to be at school every day and on time. Please make sure your child is here by 8:15 a.m. and lined up on the blacktop. Let’s continue to improve our attendance!

Home Access Center/CAASPP Scores

The Chula Vista Elementary School District utilizes the Home Access Center (HAC) to share Student Score Reports for the California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) and English Learner Proficiency Assessments for California (ELPAC) with parents and guardians. The California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) tests can be combined with other measures like report card grades, classroom work, and teacher observations to give families and teachers a more complete picture of each child’s learning. The HAC allows parents and guardians to securely review, download, and save student results quickly and conveniently. Last week an email was sent out by our superintendent sharing important information on accessing your child’s 2023-24 state testing reports in HAC. The letter is available for review, as well as instructions on how to log in to the Home Access Center. If you continue to have trouble logging in, please contact our front office. Please note that hard copies are not provided by the school and all scores are located in the Home Access Center database.
