Statement from Principal Cindy A. Jarvis, M.A.

Hi Parents, I have updated our comprehensive Return to Campus Plan that details our pro-active approach to controlling our school environment. This plan outlines practices regarding social and physical distancing to prevent exposure to COVID-19 while providing care for children. The California Department of Social Services (CDSS) worked in collaboration with the California Department of Education (CDE) and the LA County Dept of Health to develop guidelines to which our school will adhere to and are described below as we are committed to continue to provide quality education in a safe environment.
