And we are adding 4 Bravo FAFSA / CADAA workshops for the last week in February / 1st week of March. For more info on those workshops, see the attached flyer! Parents and families, has your student completed their FAFSA / CADAA application? All students should complete the FAFSA / CADAA because it provides fin. aid for vocational schools, private schools, public schools, certificate programs, Community Colleges, CSUs, UCs, and more. Students will be offered scholarships, work study, and loans too but only if they complete the application by the deadline. The deadline is 3 weeks away on March 2nd!

This is Principal Lopez with an important message for parents and guardians:

We are now preparing for instruction to resume after Winter Break. In order to provide our teachers with more time for planning enhanced online instruction, Monday, January 11, will be a pupil-free day. Classes will begin at 9 a.m. on Tuesday, January 12, and will continue in an online format. Your child will receive their class schedule when they sign into their Schoology account.

In addition, because of this change in the calendar, the last day of instruction for the school year will be changed to Friday, June 11.
