Berylwood Elementary

Our Back to School Night is Thursday, August 29th from 6:00-7:00 PM. We will have two 30 minutes sessions. This is an important night for families to meet the teacher and learn about what your child will be learning this school year. We look forward to seeing everyone for this informational night.

We will have our first school assembly for our students on Tuesday, August 27th. Quest for Kindness helps prevent bullying before it starts using social-emotional learning standards (SEL). In this one-of-a-kind program, students become adventurers as they venture out on an exciting quest to search for the Key to Kindness!

All students will participate in various fine art classes throughout the school year. During this first trimester our students will participate in music and theater classes during the school day. All students will have eight sessions of each class. All classes are taught by credentialed teachers from the district. We are excited to offer these opportunities for our students this year!

We will have our first early dismissal day on Friday, August 30th. All students will be dismissed at 12:55 PM. Monday, September 2nd is a holiday. We hope everyone has a great long weekend!

Student attendance is important! Students are building routines and learning everyday. Start building good attendance habits early so students learn right away that going to school on time, every day is important.

If you call the office and leave a message for your child's absence please include the following information: Student's full name, student's teacher, room number, and the reason why the student is absent. Please speak slowly when providing the information so we can clear the absence. If any of the information is left out or we can't understand what is being stated in the message we are not able to clear the absence. Thank you!

Students are expected to wear their uniform daily. Students will wear a light blue polo or other collared blue shirt and dark solid blue bottoms. Any jacket, sweater, or sweatshirt with appropriate words and pictures is acceptable. Berylwood shirts may be worn on Fridays. Uniforms can be found at Old Navy, Target, Walmart, or Kohl's.

All Simi Valley Schools use the Raptor Visitor Management System. This web-based software provides a sophisticated check-in and check-out system for all visitors coming to our schools and facilities. In addition to providing a data trail of visitors to our sites, this system will provide details of each visit, produce visitor badges, check-in/out all visitors, and electronically search each visitor’s information against national registered sexual offender databases. If you are scheduled to volunteer on campus you will need to complete the volunteer paperwork and provide a copy of your current state issued photo ID prior to helping at school. Each volunteer session you will need to bring your state issued ID so we can print your badge. Feel free to call our office at (805) 520-6705 with any questions.
