It's been another fantastic week at Canyon View Elementary School. Here are just a few highlights: Throughout the week, all grade levels had the opportunity to vote for the California Young Reader Medal Award Book during their library visits. On Wednesday, We took our annual School-Wide Character Counts photo. On Thursday, our Second Grade classes visited the Fleet Science Center where they were able to watch an iMAX movie and explore the museum. On Friday, our Kindergarten classes visited the stunning Carlsbad Flower Fields. The week ended with another fantastic family event from out PTO - The "All Things OZ" Spring Dance! (Don't forget to submit your pictures to the yearbook - link below!)

Here's what is coming up this week...

On Wednesday, our Westview ambassadors will present a Character Counts assembly focused on RESPECT. Out TK and Kindergarten students will have their choral music performances - first to students at Wednesday's assembly, then to Parents on Thursday Morning. On Thursday evening, our PTO and Foundation will hold their monthly meeting.

Let's Make it a GREAT week!

Dear Parents/Guardians,

PUSD 2025-2026 Continuing Student Registration is open!

Online Continuing Student Registration will be open until March 31, 2025. We MUST receive a completed digital packet for all returning students. This will allow for proper placement of your student for the 2025-2026 school year. This annual digital process allows a family to complete one single “family” packet instead of completing one packet per student. Packets can be completed using any computer, tablet or smartphone with an internet connection.

Continuing Registration Steps:

1. Login and complete the digital registration packet via the online registration portal found here.

2. Review and complete any required forms located at the conclusion of the process. A packet is not considered finalized until this step is completed.

Please note: MEDICATION FORMS or ADDITIONAL SIGNED SITE SPECIFIC FORMS WILL NOT BE COLLECTED UNTIL SCHOOL BEGINS IN AUGUST FOR THE 2025-2026 SCHOOL YEAR.

The PUSD Enrollment Team

We can’t wait to meet our new families! New Student Enrolment for Poway Unified School District is an online process. Packets are completed digitally using any computer, tablet or smartphone with an internet connection. Please contact your assigned school of residence to schedule an appointment if you do not have access to a device/internet or need assistance with completing the online enrollment packet.

School starts on August 13, 2025 for the 2025-26 school year. Welcome to PUSD! For more information about our schools and programs, visit our website.

If a school reaches near capacity for TK or Kindergarten, a lottery may be needed to determine student placement. To be included in the lottery (if required), families must submit their new student enrollment packets between April 1, 2025, and April 9, 2025, by 11:59 p.m. Only students who enroll during this period will be eligible. If a lottery is necessary at our school, families will be notified. District conducts the lottery for each site.

What is the CA Reading Difficulties Risk Screener?

The CA Reading Difficulties Risk Screener (RDRS) is a tool that is used annually with all K-2 students to assess their early reading skills. The RDRS is used to identify students who may be at risk of reading difficulties and need additional support in reading and literacy to ensure success in school. The RDRS screening process will begin in the 2025-2026 school year.

Why is the RDRS important?

The screener helps identify reading difficulties in the primary grades, giving students the best chance to improve their reading skills. By identifying challenges early, teachers can offer targeted support and interventions that help all students become confident readers. Early identification and support lead to better outcomes in literacy and overall academic success.

How does the RDRS work?

The screener will be administered to students in the primary grades (Kindergarten through 2nd grade) through a series of short assessments focused on foundational reading skills. The results help teachers understand where a student may be struggling and whether further assessment or intervention is needed.

RDRS Community Input Meeting

Learning Support Services will be hosting a Community Input Meeting on April 1, 2025 from 5:00-5:45 pm. We invite parents and community members to join our Community Input Meeting to ensure all voices are heard in selecting new learning materials for our schools. Community feedback is essential in choosing resources that support student success, reflect our district’s values, and align with educational goals. This meeting will be held via Zoom, and can be accessed HERE.

The month of April is a celebration of all things library, including School Library Month and National Library Week, recognized every year during the second week in April. Libraries provide schools and communities with spaces and places to connect, share stories, build literacy and foster a love of lifelong learning. Enjoy these picture books highlighting the importance of reading and the crucial role that libraries play in our lives

• Attention TK/K Families: You are not required to park and walk students to the gate for drop-off. Use our drive-through drop-off instead. We have supervision from the curb to the blacktop from 8:20 a.m. to 8:45 a.m. Please continue to park and pick-up from the gate at dismissal.
• Attention Grade 1-5 Families: Do not park in the lot for drop-off or pick-up. Instead, use the supervised drive-through pick-up curb west of the office. This allows sufficient parking for our staff, and TK/Kindergarten families.
• Curbside Drop-off/Pick-Up: Use our designated drop-off/pick-up area to the west of the office only. Do not ask your child to meet you anywhere else in the lot. While this might seem faster for you, it slows down our system for everyone and creates a safety hazard.
