Dear Point Vicente Parents –


To Our Point Vicente Families:
Whether you are cooking for the holiday, or attending as the guest, whether you are traveling or staying at home, I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving. This American holiday is an opportunity for us all to reflect on all that we have been given, the interdependence we have with our neighbors, and the importance of a thankful heart. On behalf of all of us at Point Vicente, Happy Thanksgiving. 
I'll be cooking - and I'm lucky enough to have family around the table. We'll save leftovers for turkey sandwiches while we watch football for days! Go Buckeyes! Beat Michigan! (The most important game of the year!)

Enjoy the long weekend - and be ready when we return for Parent Conferences (Minimum Day Schedules!)​

Resources for Victims of California Wildfires

California State PTA's mission is to positively impact the lives of all children and families – a mission that is always important but especially so during times of crisis. The state of California has been devastated by wildfires this fall and they can be unsettling, and dangerous, for children to experience. Learn how to help children cope with wildfire at  www.capta.org/coping-with-wildfires.

A public health emergency in the state of California has been declared due to the wildfires, and the Trump Administration has approved California’s request for direct aid to those in Napa and Sonoma counties who have suffered losses due to the wildfires. Survivors who live in Sonoma and Napa counties can now apply online for federal Individual Disaster Assistance at www.disasterassistance.gov or by phone at 800-621-3362 or (TTY) 800-462-7585.

Applicants who use 711 or Video Relay Service may call 800-621-3362. The toll-free numbers are open 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. seven days a week. More information on the federal Individual Disaster Assistance program is available at  www.fema.gov. Learn more about the hazards of smoke and precautions you can take from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention at www.cdc.gov/features/wildfires.

A Message from PVPUSD:
Dear PVPUSD Parent Community,
We are asking PVPUSD parents, and students in grades 3 -12, to participate in an annual Local Control Accountability Planning (LCAP) Survey. The purpose of this survey is to gather information from a variety of sources about the educational environment within the Palos Verdes Peninsula Unified School District that contributes to the production of high academic achievement levels for all students. The main emphasis of this survey focuses on the conditions of learning, pupil achievement outcomes, stakeholder engagement, and pupil safety. This is an anonymous survey and the collective results will be shared during Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP) meetings to guide local priority development, actions, and services. The aggregate survey results will be available on the PVPUSD website, under the department of Educational Services in March.
We have separated and specified the surveys into five major categories which include: Elementary Students (grades 3-5), Secondary Students (intermediate & high school), Parent, Certificated Staff, and Classified Staff. We are asking both you, the parent, and your student in grades 3-12, to click on the link provided and complete the applicable survey. Your responses will help guide the funding priorities for the PVPUSD Board of Education.
The surveys will be open until March 17, 2017.
Thank you for your participation in this process, your time and attention is greatly appreciated.
