Campus Safety
In order to keep our students safe at all times throughout the day, including at the start and ending times of school, we ask for your assistance:
Students are not to be on campus prior to 8:00 AM or after the final dismissal bell at 2:55 PM (2:00 PM on Tuesdays).
There is NO drop-off or pick up of students in the school’s front parking lot.
At the back school parking lot, please DO NOT park, double park, or vacate your vehicle along the painted “Loading Zone Only” curb.
Please help set a good example for our students by always following these safety procedures!
Viking Green Tickets
Students can earn a Viking Green ticket by demonstrating KINDNESS, SAFETY and RESPONSIBILITY. Green ticket drawings will be held each Friday in a child’s classroom; winners will get a trip to the “prize box” in the main office the following Monday!

Message from Principal Rivera
Thank you so much to all parents and family members who were able to join me this morning for Coffee with the Principal. It was wonderful to meet you and spend time together! Next week, September 8, please join us at 8:30am if you are able to. Sandra Bodley from the Gravenstein Health Action Coalition will be here to work with families on building resilience and positive parenting.
Hopefully the kids got to see the rare super blue moon on Wednesday night! This time of year always makes me think of the annual activities we so enjoyed doing as a family each fall when my son was growing up. Here are two migration events we love to witness this time of year, with more information embedded through links to various articles on the topics:
- Monarch Butterfly Migration (Sonoma County)
- Vaux Swifts (Sonoma County)
On another note, we really need your support in keeping attendance up school-wide. We had 29 absences on Friday. That's approximately 13% of the student body, almost 175 total hours of lost instruction! Unless your child is sick, please make sure they attend school every day. It can be a challenge to keep up when they don't know what they missed over the course of an entire school day. Considering that the root of everything we do as a school is in support of student growth and making progress in their learning, it is an added challenge to have so many students out each day. Thank you for supporting all students, teachers and staff by making sure our most important members are present each day!
I hope you had a relaxing three-day weekend. We're looking forward to seeing everyone refreshed and back at school today!
Sincerely,
Ms. Rivera
