Starting Monday students will have the opportunity to participate in Math Club. The front gate will open at 7:00am just for those students. Students will still be served breakfast starting at 7:25am and the campus will continue to fully open at 7:40am.

Thanks.

Due to a loss of critical Title 1 funding this past year, the front gate will not open until 7:25 am. Please DO NOT DROP OFF YOUR STUDENT(S) BEFORE 7:25 am. There will be no adult supervision for your child/children. This is new this year, due to a loss of funding that previously paid for supervision during early student drop-off. Students will be permitted on campus for breakfast service beginning at 7:25 am.

Parents, you can report absences by calling 916-971-7875, or you can email at sylvanabsence@sanjuan.edu, or in the parent portal.

NOTE:NOTE: If you are withdrawing your student from Sylvan, please contact the school directly.

Thank you.

All students should now have PE clothes and athletic shoes for class. Please remember that Crocs, slides, and Birkenstocks are not permitted.

Students who brought a lock have been assigned a locker. We encourage all students to lock up their belongings, as the school cannot be responsible for lost or stolen items that were not secured.

If your student is injured and needs to be excused from PE, please email their PE teacher prior to the start of the school day. We kindly ask that any injuries or illnesses be communicated ahead of time, rather than once class begins or after the day’s activity is announced. This allows us to best support your student.
