📬 REPORT CARDS: Were mailed home. You may also login to the Infinite Campus Parent Portal to see the report card.

📝 State Testing Results:

Student Score Reports are no longer printed by the state. SSFUSD has made the score reports available electronically through the Infinite Campus Parent Portal. Once logged in to the Parent Portal, follow the directions on the landing page to access your student’s score report. You will be able to view and download current and previous score reports for your student’s state testing (CAASPP, CAST, ELPAC). Instructions for accessing these reports through the Campus Parent Portal can be found in this tutorial and is demonstrated in this video. If you need a paper copy of this year’s score report, please contact your school’s main office.

🎒 First day of school: August 13, 2026 — we look forward to welcoming our wonderful children back for the 2026–2027 school year!

Thank you,

Ms. Garduno

Research is clear: regular attendance in elementary school is one of the strongest predictors of long-term student success. When students are present, they build foundational skills in reading, math, and social development that simply can't be replicated at home.

As we look ahead to the 2026-27 school year, attendance will be a key focus for our school community. Our goal is to reach the 🟢 light green zone — 94% to 96% attendance — for every student.

We know life happens, and we appreciate your partnership in making attendance a priority. Together, we can set our students up for the success they deserve. 💛

Thank you for being an amazing part of our school community!

Virtual therapy for students 5-19

When kids are mentally healthy, they can think clearly, pay better attention, and learn new skills. That’s why we have partnered with Daybreak Health, a school-based mental health company, to provide teletherapy to our students. Students are matched with qualified clinicians who can help them with issues such anxiety, depression, attention & focus, relationships, stress, and more.

You can submit a Care Request here for your child. The teletherapy program lasts 12-24 weeks and appointments are available Monday - Saturday 8am - 8pm. Therapy session content will remain confidential.

For younger students (ages 5-9) Daybreak offers a family therapy program where you attend the sessions with your child. For older students (ages 10+) Daybreak offers a 1:1 program where your child meets individually with a clinician.

The submit a care request link can be translated to other languages
