WE NEED YOUR INPUT

We are always looking for ways to improve at McMillin. We have only had 20 parents respond. We would like to hear from all our parents regarding parental involvement. Please take a few minutes to complete our brief survey. https://forms.gle/ANAbEaJiyijunFiy8

RESIDENCY VERIFICATION

Residency verification will take place online this year.

To parents of returning McMillin students,
You should have received an email this week for each of your children currently attending McMillin. This email will include a unique snap code for each child. Please follow the instructions carefully. This will be the platform where you submit your Residency Verification documents and complete the annual notification forms.  This takes the place of the large stack of forms that are normally sent home for your completion on the evening of the first day of school. Your quick response will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
If your email has recently changed, or if you do not receive emails from the district, please call the office to update your information: 619-397-0103.

If you are planning on not returning to McMillin next year, please email Dalia in our attendance office. dalia.guerra@cvesd.org

Returning Computers and WiFi Hot Spots

We must collect all school laptop computers and wifi hot spot devices that were checked out by families.  For your convenience, we are offering three different dates with a wide range of times.

Family Resource Centers

Family Resource Centers (FRCs) of the Chula Vista Community Collaborative are here to help students and their families in a safe environment and in a confidential manner, including housing rental arrears or future rent increase/utility bill assistance and other related programs. California’s high cost of living puts many in the 50-80% range.  Adults whose spouse/partner may have had reduced hours or been laid off may find these programs especially helpful. The CVCC FRCs are currently collaborating on several projects and are available to assist families. Here are some areas they can help you explore:

  • City of Chula Vista Rental & Utility Assistance – SBCS (ERAP)
  • Emergency Food/Diapers/Clothing
  • CalFresh and Medi-Cal Application Assistance
  • Mental Health Referrals
  • SDG&E Residential Programs and Services
