Your help is needed to make our parking lot efficient and safe.

STOP PARKING ALONG THE RED CURB. This area needs to remain clear in the event that emergency vehicles need to gain access to our school. Park on the street legally to walk your children in or pick them up at dismissal.

Remember:

• no parking along the red curb
• NO LEFT TURN when exiting the parking lot. This causes a traffic jam in the lot and disrupts traffic flow
• do not get out of your vehicle, have your child ready to exit the car, with their backpack, closest to the curb. Scholars should be dressed and ready to exit. If they are not, please park on the street and get your scholar ready.
• if your scholar needs assistance getting to class, please legally park on the street and walk them inside

We are in need of campus supervisors to monitor our scholars during recess and lunch. CSA's help to keep our scholars safe and prevent issues during unstructured time. If you are interested in being a campus supervisor, click here to apply and let us know that you have applied with them. This is a paid position.

Ladera STARS Academy Stellar Sponsorship Program

Our goal is to have 95% positive school attendance and continue to improve each month. This also means getting to school on time and teaching our students to be on time and ready to learn. If you need to report an absence please call ​the Attendance Line: (805) 241-1065 or email Joanne Vermaak @ jvermaak@conejousd.org. Families have 3 school days to clear absences or else your child will be considered "truant". Also, if you plan to be out of town for 3 or more days, please let our office know.

...each morning your child is going to be absent from school.

• Office: (805) 492-3565

• Attendance Line: (805) 241-1065

An automated call is generated, if we have not received a call (and unfortunately, sometimes even if we have). Thank you for your support.

Students inspired to reach for the STARS through explorations in Science, Technology, Arts and Rigorous Scholarship.
