At the end of the week we will be launching a new look to our website. All the same information, tabs, and links will be there. The site is migrating into a more updated version and new look. We hope this creates a more user friendly tool for everyone.  California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) Next week begins the testing window for Camino School. The CAASPP assessments are given to all students grades 3-8 on an annual basis. Among many other metrics, state testing does provide valuable insight on how we are performing as a school. I hope all of Camino’s 3rd - 8th grade students do their absolute best on these performance assessments. As a district, we will gain a fair bit of data and understanding based on how students do. Thank you for your help in encouraging our students to do their absolute best.  Later this week, Mr. Sabbagh will send out some additional information regarding testing times and locations over the next few weeks.  Events and Important Dates<ul style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;">

</ul> Survey Please find the link to the survey below. This survey will be used to complete this year's Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP). The LCAP is an annual report all school districts complete to measure and monitor progress towards our district wide goals. Thank you for taking the time to complete the survey. Your responses are valuable to us.  <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfYKesMSAmgxCXuaYVvAj6QjiAyAjdPhRHzt1t80odt2gT1hw/viewform?usp=dialog" style="text-decoration: none;">https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfYKesMSAmgxCXuaYVvAj6QjiAyAjdPhRHzt1t80odt2gT1hw/viewform?usp=dialog</a> Lost &amp; Found and a gentle reminder As the weather improves (don’t look at the forecast for the rest of the week) the Lost and Found has grown exponentially. If you are missing any items at home, please take a look. If you are on campus past the 9:00 am after drop off time, please remember to sign in at the office.  2:00 am Moment Here at Camino we have begun talks about AI in earnest. Agree or disagree, AI is in our landscape and the vast majority of us are using AI tools without even realizing it. The hope within our conversations here is to stay abreast of the changes to education that are fueled by AI. Not necessarily to implement those changes, but to be aware and informed. I have often used the example of Kodak and missing the boom of digital photography. No school or district wants to be the Kodak example of Educational AI. That being said, many are still unsure or nervous about AI in schools, or simply in general. To that I offered up a simple challenge: Using an AI tool like ChatGBT input 4-6 ingredients you find in your fridge and ask for a good recipient for dinner. Thus far the feedback has been positive. Apparently AI knows its way around the kitchen. So I extend the challenge to all of you. If you are new, unfamiliar, or unsure of AI, try the dinner challenge. I am curious to hear what culinary delights you all discover! So there I was at 2:00am, wide awake, wondering what crazy 4-6 ingredients I could input and still get a decent meal out of the deal!  Thank you,  Matthew BarnesSuperintendent/Principal CUSD

Should an emergency arise at school, we will use our emergency phone notification system to send out a message to advise you of the situation. As a parent, you can ensure that fire fighters, law enforcement and school officials are able to handle an emergency. Please do not rush to the school to pick up your child. Emergency plans are in place to reunite students with their parents as quickly as possible.
