• April 8th and 9th
• April 22nd and 23rd

Please be mindful on those days to make sure your child is at school on time, well rested and having eaten breakfast. This is a time to let your child shine in all they have learned!

Please make sure your child is coming to school each day, on time. If your child is sick or needs to be absent, make sure to contact the office at 916-971-5212.

MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY and FRIDAY

7:45 a.m. - 2:10 p.m. - 1st through 5th Grade

Please Remember that school is out early every Thursday. Students should be picked up in a timely manner. Even though our students are out, our staff is still working hard. If you have an emergency please reach out at 916-971-5212.

Each month students who have 100% Attendance are rewarded with a perfect attendance award and little attendance tag.

We know that things happen but being on time and present every day is very important. Parents get 10 parent verified illnesses a year, if you bring in a doctors note it gets coded differently and keeps parent illness codes available for emergencies or even just for a mental health day if needed. Most absences occur at the end of school and around the holidays. Three tardy days add up to one absence.

If you know your child is going to be absent please call our attendance line at 916-971-5212, or

email mariposaabsence@sanjuan.edu or on the San Juan app

So far this year we have 7 students who have attended school all 134 days that have passed. In the picture below are the 3rd graders that have so far achieved perfect attendance for the year. They are holding a link chain that represents the days we have left. Blue is in session days and Yellow are days we have off. Congratulations to all our perfect attendance Students. Stay Strong and keep going!!!

We had an ELPAC celebration party after EL students took the 4 ELPAC tests - speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Scores will be are sent to parents in late May - August in the parent portal.
