Happy Summer Menlo Park Families!

Just a reminder that our building is closed for construction this summer (we will be receiving a secure vestibule along with some other bond funded updates). 

Back to School Night: Our tentative date/time for Back to School Night will be September 8th from 4:30 – 6:00pm (pending construction). This will be a time to meet your teacher and see who is in your class.

First Day of School: The first day of school will be September 9th. This will be the only Wednesday that is not a late start. Doors will open at 8:55am.

Kindergarten: Only Kindergarten will be participating in gradual entry this year (meaning they will either come on September 9th or September 10th).

Food Pantry: The food pantry will be closed this summer due to construction. IRCO was able to secure funds to keep the food pantry here at Menlo Park so it will be reopening in the fall!

Summer Registration: Families will be able to register new students using the David Douglas Online Registration process. In early August when office staff return they will reach out about the final pieces to complete registration. This can occur even though our building has closed for Summer.

Summer Communication: We will be sending out information about the upcoming school year using ParentSquare. We will start sending out information in August, along with updates, changes, and important information (including your student’s class, bus route information, etc).
