Election ResultsCongratulations to our 2012-2013 ASB Executive Board President—Emily Taylor Vice President—Steven Soberanis Secretary—Majesty Prado Treasurer—Justin Youn Activities Director—Kiyomi Fay Publicity Director—Vanessa Lee Link Crew Director—Cory Estelle Staff Appreciation Week, May 7-11
New District Calendar for Start of 2013-14 School YearBeginning with the 2013-14 school year, the first day of class for all OUSD students will be Tuesday, August 20, 2013. The slightly earlier start date is a result of a new district-wide calendar unanimously approved by the OUSD Board of Education. The change was made during the board’s regularly scheduled meeting Tuesday, March 13, 2012.
The district asks that all OUSD families please take note of these changes in order to plan accordingly for the start of school in August 2013. For questions regarding the calendar change, please call 760-966-4008. School of Choice Second Window Through June 7
Two forms of address verification must be attached to the application. Please note that transportation is NOT provided for students approved for SOC. Applications can be obtained at all OUSD school sites or the district’s Educational Support Services (ESS) office, located at 2080 Mission Ave. All SOC applications are reviewed based on priority criteria and school capacity. Children currently utilizing SOC and who will be attending the same school next year do not need to reapply. Students on Interdistrict Attendance Permits no longer need to re-apply for renewal unless the student is matriculating to middle or high school. This form can be obtained at the child’s school of residence. Please note that Interdistrict requests must be submitted to and will only be accepted at the ESS Office. Faxes or e-mail will not be accepted for SOC or transfer requests. If you have any questions, please call the district at 760-966-7849. TDAP Immunization required for All Incoming 7th Graders
During the past year, the state of California experienced widespread cases of “pertussis,” also known as whooping cough. To help contain the spread of this highly contagious condition, ALL7thgrade students MUST show definitive proof of immunization (Tdap) against this infectious disease before the start of the 2012-13 school year.
By law, all students in grades 7-12 will NOTbe able to register or attend class this fall without proper documentation supporting proof of immunization. This new law requires proof of a Tdap booster shot prior to starting the school year. The district asks that you plan now to have your child immunized as soon as possible and not wait until the start of the school year. Again, students will not be allowed to register or attend class in any public or private school without proof of having received this important vaccination. Please review your child’s immunization records to determine whether he/she has received the Tdap vaccine. Students who have been given a Tdap shot on or after a 7thbirthday will meet the school immunization requirement by providing proof of immunization. Exemptions will be permitted for verified medical conditions or personal beliefs. Proof of immunization must include the following: student name, date of birth, type of vaccine given, date of vaccine, and name of physician or clinic administering the shot. Yellow Cards or print-outs from electronic systems such as EMR or SDIR will be accepted. Most health plans should cover the cost of the vaccine under preventive care. However, a number of local health care providers participating in the federal Vaccine for Children program are available to provide free immunization services. Call 877-243-8832 to locate a provider. You can also access www.getimmunizedca.orgfor further vaccination information. Questions for our health office may directed to Mrs. Donaldson, 760-966-4921. What's Happening at CCMS?
