Important changes to Campus Portal.
Campus Portal will be removed on June 30, 2019 and replaced with Campus Student and Campus Parent.
What does this mean for Campus Portal (Web)?
Campus Portal will be replaced with Campus Student and Campus Parent. Your Portal login page URL will stay the same. However, we will be adding two buttons with links to Campus Student and Campus Parent.
What does this mean for the Campus App?
Campus Student and Campus Parent will replace our old app, Campus Mobile Portal. (Those using the old app have seen this message for months: “This app will be retiring soon. Download your new Infinite Campus App: Campus Student or Campus Parent."). Campus Mobile Portal will be removed from the app store June 30, 2019. All app users will need to download Campus Parent or Campus Student.

Robotics Club is in full swing.
Drop off/pick up reminder: Please remember that stopping for people in a crosswalk is not only state law but also necessary for the lives and safety of our students, staff, parents, and visitors. Also, drive slowly so that you can see if anyone is stepping out into traffic to stop a child from darting or chasing down a fly-away permission slip. SAFETY FIRST!
It's time to start thinking about summer school! Check out this year summer school flyer and online registration.

Today we are getting electrical updates for our new front doors. When complete, there will be a new camera and buzzer located on the exterior of the building, and both doors will open after folks are buzzed in. This safety update was paid for by the Department of Justice's school safety grant Fontana J8 received last year.
