The Wildcat Way – May 23-27, 2022 (Week #37)

“Achieving Excellence for ALL – Juntos Alcanzando Excelencia”

Thank You for Coming!

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our Child Safety Fair & Bike Rodeo last Saturday. We had over 400 people attend our event! It was so great to be able to connect and be together as a community for the first time in over 2 years! A big shout to the Chula Vista Kiwanis for putting on the special event and providing free helmets, lunch, bike safety, a raffle, and face painting to our families. We are looking forward to the return of more community events in the future. Stay safe and wear a helmet when on a bike or scooter! Please share your pictures with Mrs. Watson through ClassDojo or bree.watson@cvesd.org.

Residency Verification – Begins May 23, 2022

Residency verification will take place online again this year. All students returning to any school in the Chula Vista Elementary School District for the 2022/23 school year are required to show proof of residency at their school of attendance before the start of school in order for their child’s name to be placed on a class list. If you have moved out of our area and would like to continue at Loma Verde Elementary, you must contact the office to receive a Zone Transfer document. You will be receiving an email that will contain a unique “Snap Code” for each of your children enrolled at Loma Verde and a link to the website where you will be able to update information for your child and upload your residency for the 22/23 school year. You will only receive an email if you have a valid email on file at Loma Verde. If your email has recently changed, or if you do not receive emails from the district, please email or call the office to update your information at 619-420-3940 or lomaverdeschool@cvesd.org. We will begin sending the “Snap Codes” the week of May 23, 2022. Please make sure to check your emails so that you may complete this promptly. If you have not received your email by May 25, please contact the school office.

Have You Changed Your Address, Email, or Phone Number?

Have you changed your address, email address, or phone number since the start of the school year? Please notify the office at lomaverdeschool@cvesd.org in case we need to contact you in an emergency.
