******************************************************************* Recent changes to 2011-12 school calendar include new days off On July 13, the Governing Board approved a slight modification to the 2011-12 school calendar in order to better prepare for the start of the school year, and to improve delivery of the annual parent-teacher conferences that occur at the elementary school level each October. In part, these changes include closing all schools on Monday, Oct. 10 and Monday, Oct. 31 to observe district-wide furlough days resulting from California’s school budget cuts. All CUSD schools will be closed Oct. 10 and Oct. 31 due to furlough days. Campus Club will not operate on Oct. 10 or Oct. 31. This year’s annual elementary school conference day will be held Friday, Oct. 28; elementary students will not attend school on this day to allow for parent/teacher conferences while secondary schools will remain in session. Full-day Campus Club programs will be available Oct. 28.

All CUSD sites will contact parents if their child has an uncleared absence from school using the District’s automated notification system. Now, if your child is not in school and we have not yet heard from you, an automated call will be placed to notify you of the uncleared absence. It is our hope that these calls will allow us to connect with parents more quickly when a child is not in class, ensuring the safety of our students.
When receiving a call from the automated system, parents will be able to leave a message notifying the school of the reason for an absence, but must remember to always end their recording by hitting the pound (#) sign. This action will save your message to the attendance system so that it is accurately delivered to the attendance office. You can also continue to call 327-6000 to notify the school of your child’s absence. Thank you for helping us maximize our students’ time in class!
