Santa Rita Elementary Weekly Newsletter

Week of March 30-April 4, 2026

Welcome Back, Hummingbird Families!
We hope you all had a wonderful, safe, and restful Spring Break! It is so good to have our students and staff back on campus tomorrow. We are energized and ready to dive into a fantastic final stretch of the school year.

📝 Looking Ahead to State Testing
As we get back into our routines, our 3rd through 5th graders are entering an important window of preparation. We have a few weeks of focused learning ahead before we begin the California State Assessments (CAASPP). Additionally, our 5th graders will be taking the California Science Test (CAST) at the end of April.

We want our scholars to feel confident and prepared, so please ensure they are arriving on time, well-rested, and ready to show off everything they have learned this year!

🤝 Join Us: School Site Council & Parent Engagement
We value your voice and partnership! Please join us this Thursday, April 2nd at 2:30 PM for our School Site Council and Parent Engagement Meeting. This is a great opportunity to stay informed about school goals and share your input on how we can continue to support our students together.

-Ms. K and Mrs. Zavala

Fieldtrip season

We are approaching our fieldtrip season for a lot of our grade levels. Parents, if your child's teacher needs a chaperone, please communicate with them if you are available and interested. Anyone going on a fieldtrip with their child MUST register through Raptor at least one week before the fieldtrip. You need to complete the application on our district website and submit a valid TB test result within the last 3 years.
