• Students need to participate in school, so please think through the costumes they wear to school.
• Costumes need to follow District Dress Code Policies.

Several parents have expressed an interest in serving on the Sycamore Canyon School Site Council (SSC) for the 2024–2025 school year. School Site Council consists of the principal, parents, and staff members who work together to discuss school issues, make decisions regarding the school budget, and monitor implementation of the academic program as presented in the Single Plan for Student Achievement. There are 2 Vacant Positions for parents on the council for this year. Please follow this link and vote for the two people of your choosing. Thank you!
