Kindergarten begins at 8:30 a.m. and ends at 2:30 p.m.

Bitsy Catering and CAVS are continuing our efforts to improve service as well as offer our families convenient and nutritious lunches. Our success is directly related to each of us meeting our responsibilities.
Lunch orders must be received in a timely manner to ensure efficient service. The due date for each monthly order is printed at the bottom of each of the order forms. Orders received after the due date will be charged an additional $10.00 and will require a two day processing period of time. No same day orders will be accepted.
All order forms must be submitted with payment in full for the entire monthly period. Checks made out to Bitsy Catering, must accompany your order and need to be turned into the front office. No orders will be processed without payment.
In the event of an emergency,(such as the student discovers he/she has forgotten a lunch in the back seat of a parent’s car) students will be offered sustenance in the form of cheese and crackers, carrot sticks, fruit, and juice or milk. The family will be notified immediately and the $5.00 payment is expected to be received in the office at the time the child is picked-up in the afternoon.
Please, send your child(ren) to school with a box/bag lunch or pre-ordered lunch. Thank you in advance for taking notice of these important directions.

New Law Requires T-dap Shot for 7th through 12th Graders
Under a new law, California middle and high school students must be vaccinated against pertussis (whooping cough). Beginning July 1, 2011, all students entering 7th through 12th grades are required to show proof of a “Tdap” booster shot before starting school. This requirement applies to all public and private schools. The new requirement was signed into law in 2010 by Governor Schwarzenegger. Starting July 2012, only students entering 7th grade will need proof of a Tdap booster shot.
The new immunization requirement is intended to help reduce the spread of whooping cough among California’s youth. Most children are fully protected prior to entering kindergarten because of the DTaP vaccine, a vaccine formulated for younger children. However, immunity to these diseases wears off and adolescents may be vulnerable to the highly contagious disease without a booster.
The California Department of Public Health and the California Department of Education have been working collaboratively on this important measure. Information and training materials for schools and parents on the new Tdap requirement, forms, and FAQs are available at www.ShotsForSchools.org.
Important vaccines recommended for preteens and teens including the meningococcal vaccine, a second chickenpox shot (if they never had chickenpox disease), and the HPV vaccine series. Everyone older than six months old is recommended to receive a seasonal flu vaccine. |
