This Week’s book fair was a huge success! Thank you to our PTA for organizing a book fair for us. Thank you to all of the parent volunteers who came out to help!
We are excited to celebrate our Purple Star Recognition. We will have an assembly on Monday April 15th on the blacktop at 8:30am. Parents are welcome to attend. Please make sure you sign into the main office and obtain your visitors badge.
Message from PTA:
The Book Fair is coming! April 15th – 19th!
Information should have been sent home with your student.
Materials include:
✅Catalog of book fair inventory
✅ Information on how to set up your student’s eWallet so you don’t have to send cash*
✅ Wish/shopping list
(*One great feature of the eWallet is ANYONE can add to it. If you have loved ones that would like to contribute to your student’s eWallet, simply send them the link!)
Your child’s teacher will communicate their scheduled shopping day, which will begin on Tuesday, April 16th. We plan to also be open after school on Thursday, provided we have enough volunteers…
Which is the perfect segue to beg our Beagle Families for help 🙏🏼 Please consider signing up for a shift or two to help us serve our students!

➡️ Parents/Guardians of primary students (grades TK – 3) are especially needed during their shopping time. Parents are welcome to accompany as long as they check in at the office.
Remember: there are so many benefits of reading and there is no such thing as too many books! 📚
Please contact mcmillin.pta.volunteer@gmail.com with any questions.
We look forward to seeing all our Beagles next week!
As you may be aware, on Monday, April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse will cross North America, passing over Mexico, the United States, and Canada. The total solar eclipse will block out the sun momentarily for millions of viewers along a path stretching from northern Mexico to Maine.
While San Diego County is not on the path to the total eclipse, the region is expected to see a partial eclipse beginning around 10 a.m., peaking about an hour later at 11:11 a.m., and ending at 12:23 p.m.
As the safety of our students and staff is our top priority, all schools within CVESD are required to operate on a rainy day schedule on April 8. This means all recess and lunch must take place indoors.
If classroom teachers and students are interested in viewing the eclipse with the proper safety procedures in place, parents will be required to sign a waiver in order for their child to view the eclipse. Waiver Form Solar Eclipse 2024
As such, any student who will participate in viewing the solar eclipse must wear protective glasses. Only proper glasses (specific for solar eclipse) may be used if your site chooses to participate in viewing the eclipse. Solar Views must comply with the ISO 12312-2 international standard.
As you know, direct exposure to the sun’s rays, especially during an eclipse, poses severe risks to eye health. Even a partial eclipse can cause irreversible eye damage without proper precautions. We’d like to ask you to make eye safety a top priority during this time.
