Back-to-School!

Jul 12, 2022

We are excited to welcome our families and students back for the 2022-2023 school year!

We’ve made some changes to the Back-to-School process that we hope will help streamline things for you. This year all information, including specific details from each school as well as forms you need to complete, will be found in FACTS Family Portal. No more searching for individual emails!

Follow these steps to access your Back-to-School information and Family Handbooks as well as to submit your Web Forms –

  1. Click here for FACTS Family Portal.
    • The District Code is CA-US.
    • Forgot your username/password? Click on the link.
  2. Once you’ve logged in to FACTS Family Portal, click “Resource Documents” on the left navigation bar.

You will drive around the church parking lot and around to the school’s carpool lane and will end back in front of the preschool door and from there you can park in the parking lot. You are invited to come to your child’s classroom to take pictures and enjoy refreshments with your child as they receive a portfolio and special gifts.

Last Chance to Order a Yearbook!

May 12, 2022

In past years, most of our students purchased a yearbook and came to the end-of-the-year signing parties. We all had a great time reminiscing about the year, eating yummy treats and signing each other’s yearbooks. Now is the time to ensure you get to be a part of the fun at this year’s yearbook signing party! Online orders are now closed but you still have the opportunity to purchase a yearbook if you haven’t done so already!

We will have a limited quantity available on a first come, first served basis. Please send in payment of $30 (checks made payable to CAL) with your child’s name and YEARBOOK on the memo line. Payments should be sent to the office as soon as possible because yearbooks will be distributed on Monday, May 23.

If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Anderson at [email protected].
