We are please to announce the launch of the Alpine Union Academy, a free after-school tutoring and enrichment program for Alpine Union students. In grades TK-2nd grade, our focus will center around early literacy, while grades 3rd and above will focus on supporting math. To support our students in our dual language program, tutoring will also be available in both English and Spanish. Tutoring will be available Monday - Thursday from 3:00 - 6:00 PM.
We anticipate the Alpine Union Academy starting in November.

Huge thanks to our Board members, parents, students, teachers, staff, administrators, community, and business leaders for being part of the AUSD Design Team. Last night the team launched our work to create a Portrait of an AUSD Learner. Over the next five months, the team will be working to define our expectations for learners that will be reflective of the learning and career changes our students will face in the fast-paced, interconnected world in which we live.
Our wonderful student body and student board members developed the storyline for our next Around Alpine Union Video. We filmed the video today and look forward to sharing it soon!
New fencing has begun being installed behind SHES, CELC and MVLA today. We will continue to make safety our top priority!
AUSD Safety and Security Update
In an effort to provide all the information we have, I wanted to relay that the Deputies were unable to locate any evidence of gunfire. In addition, it has been posted online that the Sheriff's Department arrested someone in relation to this event. That is not accurate. The Sheriff's Department asked me to relay that they arrested someone close by for a completely unrelated incident. Again, thank you for your support.
We realize that many parents are arriving on campus to pick up their child. We appreciate your patience. Thank you to Captain Rand and the Sheriff's Department for the constant communication and for ensuring the safety of our schools.
The Sheriff’s department has secured the campus and released both schools from lockdown. The Sheriff’s department will be on campus. Parents wishing to pick up their child will be greeted at the gate and will not be allowed to enter the campus. Parents will follow our process for picking up students.
We are staying in close contact with Sheriff's department. Helicopter is sweeping the area. Principals are in communication with teachers and staff. We will continue to keep you updated.

Our district is grateful for a close partnership with the Alpine Sheriff’s Office, especially in providing training and support for our staff. We work closely to ensure the training we provide is best practice and is consistent with national, state, and local recommendations. Our staff trains for a variety of crises that may be encountered including fires, lockdowns, health issues, active shooters, intruders, shelter in place, and weather-related crises. Thank you, Captain Rand and the Alpine Sheriff’s Department for your support, collaboration, and training.
