Good Evening Families,
I am so happy that tomorrow, May 17th, we will return to five days a week for in-seat learning. All drop-off and pick-up times will remain the same. Our safety protocols will remain the same as well. We still have a few yearbooks for sale if you have not had a chance to order one for your child it is not too late. This is sure to be a collector’s item. PTA has a few positions open that we need help filling. Please contact the office for more information. If you have a fifth grader, I emailed a link out to reserve seats for the event. Please ensure you have filled out the guest form by May 28th. Contact your child’s teacher or the office if you need additional information or have questions.
Have a great week!

Good Evening Families,
Next week is Staff Appreciation. On Friday, May 7th we will have fifth grade photos for promotion. Please remember to go online and fill out next year’s registration. Everyone is required to complete this process. We only have 37% participation at this point. Thank you for continuing to follow the drop off and pick up schedules. Please do not double park on the dirt area. The Highway patrol will ticket for this. We have the new touchless water bottle dispensers operational. Children are able to refill their bottles as needed. PTA is in need of a few officers for next year. If you are interested, please contact the school office for additional information.
Have a great week.

Thank you Rep. Issa for visiting Alpine Union and recognizing our district for its reopening strategy and presenting us with a proclamation from Congress that April 30 is declared Alpine Union School District Day.
Mountain View Learning Academy would like to invite you to learn more about their home school program. Please see the flyer and contact MVLA for any questions.
Our AUSD Preschool students welcomed some new additions to the classroom this week. Students watched as baby chicks hatched from incubated eggs. Check out these adorable pictures from Mrs. Nash's class.
Good Evening Families,
I hope everyone that was able to attend the Waking up Courage assemblies enjoyed them. We appreciated all the positive feedback that was received. If you were not able to attend the assemblies, they introduced students to language and skills they can use to prevent and stop bullying. The Waking Up Courage Assembly is a powerful, student-centered experience that enlists, unites, and empowers students to take a stand and speak up when they see bullying and violence among their peers. We will have more opportunities to participate next year.
If you have not completed the online registration, please do so. We will begin organizing classes based on enrollment. We will be sharing more information soon on some fun Summer School opportunities.
Have a great week,
Yvette Maier
AUSD Summer Learning Opportunities Coming Soon!
