Parking Lot Safety
Your help is needed to make our parking lot efficient and safe.
STOP PARKING ALONG THE RED CURB. This area needs to remain clear in the event that emergency vehicles need to gain access to our school. Park on the street to walk your children in or pick them up at dismissal.
Remember:
- no parking along the red curb
- NO LEFT TURN when exiting the parking lot. This causes a traffic jam in the lot and disrupts traffic flow
- do not get out of your vehicle, have your child ready to exit the car, with their backpack, closest to the curb. Scholars should be dressed and ready to exit. If they are not, please park on the street and get your scholar ready.
- if your scholar needs assistance getting to class, please park on the street and walk them inside

The Big Boo
One of our BIGGEST events of the year is fast approaching. The Big Boo will be here before you know it! There will be games, food, music, bounce houses, and more. BUT, to make this event happen, we NEED parent/family volunteers. The Big Boo just isn't possible without volunteers. To ensure that ALL parents get to spend time with their children on this night, we need volunteers before, during, and after the event. Scan the QR code in the flyer below to fill volunteer spots such as:
- lend your EZ Up tent
- trunk or treat
- line monitor
- admissions table
- carnival booth
- inflatables attendant
- face painting
- clean up crew
- AND MORE
Candy Needed!
Please donate candy and small items (pencils, stickers, etc) via our candy monsters outside of the office! All donations will be used for the Big Boo!
Red Ribbon Week

Restaurant Night
Have dinner and give back to the school...see below for details!
Be On Time!
Our goal is to have 95% positive school attendance and continue to improve each month. This also means getting to school on time and teaching our students to be on time and ready to learn. If you need to report an absence please call the Attendance Line: (805) 241-1065 or email Joanne Vermaak @ jvermaak@conejousd.org. Families have 3 school days to clear absences or else your child will be considered "truant". Also, if you plan to be out of town for 3 or more days, please let our office know.
Please CALL...
Office: (805) 492-3565
