REQUIRED
HOW DO I DO THIS?
✅ Through going into your Parent Portal HERE
All current SSFUSD K-12 students who plan to continue at any school in the district next school year must complete the Annual Enrollment Update in the Parent Portal (Infinite Campus)
The annual enrollment update requires parents/guardians to verify and/or update the following:
- Contact information
- Housing information
- Health conditions and medications
- District notifications, expectations, and agreements
Go to Forgot Password and Forgot Username tools.
When using Forgot Password and Forgot Username, parents should enter their email address and click Submit. Infinite Campus should send an email with username or a link to change password.
If that fails?
Contact our Spruce Main Office. Any of our 3 amazing personnel can assist you!
You will need to have your new address verified and updated before you can complete Annual Enrollment Update. Verify the new address by bringing a PG&E bill in the parent name to your school. Parents without a PG&E bill in their name can verify their residence by completing a Residency Affidavit (English) / (Spanish) at the district office. Once the residency affidavit has been approved, bring it to your local school office.
Dear Families of Grades 3–5,
State testing is just around the corner, and we’re excited for our students to show what they’ve learned and how much they’ve grown this year! They will be taking tests in English Language Arts and Mathematics. 5th Grade will also test in Science.
To help your child feel confident and prepared, please support them with the following:
-
Charge Chromebooks every night so they’re ready to go in the morning.
-
Ensure a good night’s sleep—being well-rested helps with focus and energy.
-
Provide a healthy breakfast each day if possible at home.
-
Arrive to school on time so your child can begin the day feeling calm and ready.
We believe in every one of our students and know they’ll do their best. Thank you for your continued partnership and encouragement during this important time.
Wishing your child all the best on the test!
-Ms. Garduno

We do plan to have field-trips again this year and in order for parents to volunteer to be chaperones, you must be a fingerprinted cleared volunteer. This process takes time! Please come to the office to pick up an application to start the process.
Want to volunteer if teachers have a need in the classroom? It is the same process. Start today!
