Each year our School Site Council revises the Family Engagement Policy and Home School Compact, two documents that detail our partnership with families through the school's Title 1 Program. We would appreciate your valuable thoughts and ideas. The survey below has 5 questions. We'd love to hear your voice on any and all questions. Whether you have time for the whole survey or just 1-2 questions, your feedback is essential to our school's growth!
Beginning Monday, September 21, Rollin’ From the Heart will be on campus every Monday during lunch, giving students an opportunity to learn and enjoy skateboarding in a positive, supportive environment.
Through skateboarding, students can build confidence, physical skills, positive relationships, and life skills with support from experienced mentors and coaches.
No experience necessary! Skateboards and protective equipment will be provided.
Interested in participating? A completed and signed parent/guardian permission form is required before students may participate.
👉 [Complete the Rollin’ From the Heart Waiver Here]
Signed permission forms must be turned in to the Senda Middle School office.
Come roll with us, Cougars! 🐾💜🛹
OUSD provides Device Protection Coverage for a fee of $20 per student. This program protects families in situations where the student’s device is accidentally damaged. Students using OUSD district-owned devices may choose to decline the “Device Protection Program”. However, this is not recommended because the family assumes full responsibility for any costs due to damage, loss, or theft. These costs can be $400 or more per incident, depending on the current prices from vendors. See the flier or buttons below for more information.

We have several parent/community openings this year.
