Our Annual Giving Drive is our biggest friend raiser of the year! All donations are tax deductible and 100% of donations go directly to fund programs for our kids! Any amount is appreciated; no amount is too small!!

Reminder: Picture Days are October 1 & 2 from 2-5pm. 

Please see the schedule below for your child’s picture time. We would like to follow the time schedule as much as possible for crowd control but, you are welcome to come at anytime between 2-5pm if you are not able to make it at your child’s scheduled time. Remember to wear masks and social distance while waiting for your turn. Masks should be removed only when the photo is being taken. All photos will be taken outside in front of the school.

Order forms will be available and need to filled out and turned in with payment on the day you have your picture taken; cash, checks payable to Shutterbug Express, and credit cards accepted. Sanitized pens will be provided. See the attached flyer for photo packages and pricing.  

The photos taken on these two days will be used in the yearbook so even if you don’t plan on purchasing photos, we would really appreciate you bringing your child/ren to have their photos taken so they can be included on their class page with their classmates and teacher. We understand and respect that you may not be comfortable having photos taken at this time. We will have spring photos as well that can be used for the yearbook.

As of March 11th, 2020 LAUSD has suspended all social gatherings.

Dolphin Café

Open House

FoSA Meetings 

Food Trucks 

Evening Walk’n’Talk 

Family Mosaic Day

These are all the events leading up to Spring Break. We will continue to keep all parents informed as we receive instruction from LAUSD.
