Student Medications at School

Does your child require medication at school? If so, they must have a completed form by their medical provider. Forms are available HERE. Medications may be dropped off to school nurses at the EUSD District Office (5455 Eureka Road) on Monday, August 8th from 10:00 a.m-2:00 p.m.

 

The Student/Parent Handbook is included in the Student Planner. The Handbook reviews all of the policies, procedures and expectations for school. A link to the handbook is here - HANDBOOK

We are fortunate to have wonderful family support and a Parent Teacher Club (PTC) that raises a significant amount of money to support our day to day functions and our specific needs at Ridgeview. PTC will host CAN (Class Assignment Night) on Tuesday, August 9th from 5:00-6:00 p.m. to help raise money to support our activities and events throughout the year. This is an opportunity for students to see the school, reconnect with their classmates, find out who their teacher is, purchase a school planner and learn more about our PTC. Check out the website @ PTC Website

 

Our Eureka Schools Foundation (ESF) also allows us to provide one of a kind enrichment opportunities for our children. More than ever before, we are looking to our community to become stakeholders with ESF, so that our children are still able to engage in the incredible enrichment opportunities that they have available in EUSD. These opportunities will only continue with community and parent support. Eureka Union School District really is an extraordinary district because of these opportunities. Thank you for supporting ESF! Check out the website @ ESF Website

Take care and see you soon,

Mrs. Joyce Frisch, M.Ed. Principal
