Clairmont Bulldog Families,
Did you know that our office went through 1,000 tardy slips in 6 weeks! 😮 Parents, help us decrease that number and redirect funds from tardy slips to items beneficial for your students!
Arrival Time & Timeliness: Our school day begins promptly at 8:00 a.m. Please ensure that your child arrives on time so they can begin their learning without disruption. We want every student to start their day positively and ready to learn.
Appropriate Dress: Please ensure your child comes to school dressed appropriately for learning and the weather conditions. This includes wearing their uniform and closed-toe shoes for safety.
Chromebooks: Students are expected to bring their fully charged Chromebooks to school each day. These devices are essential for their daily lessons, and arriving with a charged Chromebook ensures students can fully participate in class activities.

California's Daylighting Law AB 413: We are excited to announce our collaboration with the City of Lodi to help raise awareness about California’s new traffic law, AB 413. This legislation introduces important changes at improving road safety and ensuring responsible driving practices across the state.
As a community, it’s vital that we stay informed about laws that impact our daily lives. AB 413 prohibits the stopping, standing, or parking of a vehicle within 20 feet of the vehicle approach side of any marked or unmarked crosswalk or within 15 feet of any crosswalk where a curb extension/bulbout is present, whether or not the curb is painted red. This is a safety measure known as “Daylighting”. Effective January 2025, the rules will be applied whether or not the curb is painted red.
