To our returning 7th and 8th graders, enjoy a well-deserved summer filled with fun, relaxation, and new adventures. We look forward to welcoming you back in August for another exciting year of learning, growth, and opportunities.
To our incoming 6th graders, welcome to the Panther family! Get ready to learn, laugh, make new friends, and create lasting memories as a Proud Panther.
Have a safe, restful, and wonderful summer,

Sun Bucks Summer Grocery Benefits for Families
This summer, some families may receive SUN Bucks, a grocery benefit that helps families buy food for their children when school is not in session. Eligible students may receive $120 per child to help purchase groceries during the summer months. These benefits are provided through the SUN Bucks (Summer EBT) program, administered by the State of California. Many students are automatically eligible, including children in households that receive CalFresh, CalWORKs, or qualifying Medi-Cal, as well as students identified as foster, homeless, or migrant. Students who qualify for free or reduced-price school meals may also be eligible.
If your child is eligible, the SUN Bucks EBT card will be mailed directly to your home address. No action is required for families who already meet the eligibility criteria. If you believe your child may qualify but you have not submitted a Free and Reduced-Price Meal Application or Universal Benefits Application, completing one may help determine eligibility for SUN Bucks and other programs that support students and families. To apply, please visit: https://www.cambriansd.org/departments/food-services
