IN THE COMMUNITY...
Try Disc Golf as a great outdoor option!
Did you know there is a Disc Golf Course at Brengle Terrace Park, 1200 Vale Terrace Drive in Vista?
The course is open during normal park hours, 7 am to dusk.
Disc Golf is a great outdoor exercise and it's fun too! It's also a sport that can "grow with you," as there are Disc Golf courses all over California and the United States. Need a disc? (It's basically a Frisbee or other similar disc). Disc rentals are now FREE at Brengle Terrace Park - just leave your ID during store hours at the Pro-Shop. The shop is located between the softball fields in the concession stand in the park. The shop has maps, discs for free rent & for sale, snacks and more. Shop hours are Thursday-Sunday, 9:00am to 5:00pm.
Learn to play hockey!
The San Diego Gulls Learn to Play Hockey Program offers first-time hockey players the chance to get on the rink in full hockey equipment for free. Participants will receive instruction on the basics of hockey as well as learn how to skate properly. The program is designed for participants ages 4 to 12 years old. No prior skating or hockey experience is required. Participants who are already comfortable skating a length of the ice, who want to try hockey are encouraged to register for the Little Ducks Hockey Initiation program.*
Participants in the San Diego Gulls Learn to Play Hockey Program will be provided with an equipment bag, helmet, shin guards, hockey pants, elbow pads, shoulder pads, gloves and a jersey to use for the four week session in order to be fully protected on the rink. Rental skates will be available at the rink each week. The use of full hockey equipment not only gives participants the feel of what it’s like to be a hockey player but also enables them to get use to skating, wearing all of the hockey gear.**
ADDITIONAL SCHOOL FORMS
Alternate Pick Up - Please complete this form and bring to our front office if your child(ren) will be picked up by someone other than a parent or guardian
Medication Form - New form will be provided soon.
Household Information Update - Please return this form to the office with any new information so we can update our records. If you change your residential address, we will need a current proof of residence showing the new address.
PARKING AND SCHOOL DAILY SCHEDULE
School Drop Off Traffic Flow Diagram
School Pick Up Traffic Flow Diagram
Drop off is from 8:30 - 8:45 am.
We will meet in the gym for our all school assembly from 8:45 - 9:00 am. All family and friends are welcome at our morning assembly. All kids will follow their teacher to their first morning class at 9:00 am.
Late arrivals will need to check in at the office. Office Staff will walk students to their class.
Pick up is at 3:00 pm for K-2nd and 3:30 pm for 3-8th.
Younger siblings waiting for older ones will be supervised on the playground until the 3:30 pm pick up.
We have two lines of traffic that come into the pickup area.
At book pick up, you will receive a placard with your last name to display in your car window.
Last names beginning with A-K are on the playground lane (inner right lane) and L-Z are on the parking lot lane (left lane). Signs will be posted to help with traffic flow. The first few weeks will be slower as we learn to recognize cars. Please be patient as we work this out. Last year we were able to get everyone in and out within 10 minutes.
