Happy New Year

We will start our second half of the school year on Monday, January 5, 2009.
School hours are 8:15 am to 2:45 pm.
Please check your child's backpacks for important correspondence.
We had a very white vacation. In case of a school delay or closure, please
watch Bakersfield channels or listen to Bakersfield Radio. The district will
issue an automated alert by phone to each family. However, this alert will not be sent if there
is no power. In the case of no power, please use your own good judgment.
Again, "Happy New Year"!
