Principal's Message

Welcome to Junipero Serra Elementary! 

We hope everyone has a relaxed, enjoyable summer break!  School will open on August 17 for the 2011-2012 school year.  Our offices will be open for new registrations starting on August 3rd.  Hours for registration are 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM.  Watch for updated details about our school at the beginning of August. 

Details about Junipero Serra can be found in the Parent Handbook section under "For Parents and Families" in this web site.  The Handbook is updated as needed and is designed to provide answers to many of the basic questions.  If you wish to review information from the year we are just completing, all of the newsletters are also posted in our web site.  Our handbook will be updated over the summer while the current handbook provides good basic information. 

We encourage you to check out our web pages for information about our school.  Newsletters are posted in the Parents and Community Section along with our Parent Handbook.  Teacher email contact information is in the Teachers section and there are additional informational links on the homepage.  Please contact us if you need additional information about our school.

Junipero Serra Selected as a Distinguished School

Junipero Serra was invited to apply for status as a Distinguished School.  The application was successful and we have been identified as a California Distinguished School.  The two signature practices identified are Effective Learning and the Use of Technology.  Effective Learning is the use of specific instructional strategies that advance student achievement and the Use of Technology is the incorporation of technology in the classroom, specifically the use of technology with Math and English Language Arts with the curriculum, the extension of learning to the home with Study Island and the use of SMART Boards in the classroom.

We are excited to have been identified as a California Distinguished School.
