Loma Verde Holiday Store!

Dec. 6-17, 2021

The holidays are coming and we want to help make the season even more special for your children by giving them the opportunity to shop (in secret!) for the perfect gift for Mom, Dad, grandparents, siblings, and other important people in their lives. A flyer will send home along with an envelope to help with gift budgeting for your student. Holiday Shop will be open during school Mondays and Fridays and Wednesday after school.

Get Vaccinated!

Children 5 and up can be vaccinated against Covid-19. Please send completed (two doses of Pfizer) COVID-19 vaccination card copies to lomaverdeschool@cvesd.org to update school vaccination records. Visit  myturn.ca.gov to access your child’s record if you did not retain the card. Children are considered fully vaccinated two weeks after the second Pfizer dose. Children who are fully vaccinated do not need to quarantine after exposure to a positive case IF we have vaccination records on file.

Click here for information about where to get the COVID-19 vaccine.

Reminder: Students are to attend school every day for the ENTIRE day unless they are sick or in quarantine. Please do not take your child out of school early unless you have a scheduled doctor’s visit. Leaving early or arriving late will affect their attendance. Please provide a note for doctor or dentist visits to the attendance health office.

Riverside Local Schools News Article

Note: Every time a student is absent (sick or not sick), the parent/guardian must report the reason for the absence by calling the school at 619-420-3940 or sending an email lomaverdeschool@cvesd.org. The absent student must get a cleared pass at the office before returning to the classroom. If you do not notify the office why your child is out, it will be considered an “UNEXCUSED ABSENCE”.

Health and Well-being Reminder:

Please check your child’s well-being before sending them to school.  Students with symptoms that are COVID-like will be sent home.  Remember to wear a mask while on District property at all times.
