The Campbell Union School District is on a mission to ensure each of our 12 schools is a “School of Choice” for our families and community. We want to know what influences your decision when choosing a school for your children. The responses will help us refine our programs to meet the needs of our students and parents by providing an educational experience that is “beyond the expected” at each of our schools and supporting programs.

Take the survey online at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/campbellchoice.

For a printed copy, please call your child’s school or the District’s Public Information office.

A Message from Superintendent Andrew

Federal Court Judge Kimberly Mueller held a hearing to amend her recent ruling pertaining to the protocol for releasing personally identifiable student information by the California Department of Education (CDE). She noted that the large number of objections the court has already received did indicate a high level of concern from the public.

The amended protocol calls for a court-appointed special master for discovery who will have to approve which data the plaintiffs can receive from the California Longitudinal Pupil Achievement Data System (CaLPADS) database. More details are on the district website. (www.campbellusd.org)

PTA Board elections are coming up in April and we are still looking for nominees to fill some very important board positions.  The most important on the list are Treasurer and Secretary.  According to PTA rules and bylaws, Forest Hill cannot have a PTA if these two positions are not filled.  Here is a brief description of duties for each position.

Treasurer - Work with Board to create the budget each year, bank deposits, write checks, update budget throughout the year.  Approximately 3-4 hours per week.

Secretary - Take notes at board meetings and association meetings, create meeting minutes for PTA records.

VP Membership - Manages membership drive in the fall, including help with direct donation drive.

Financial Secretary - Collect and count Ice Cream Friday money, help cashier on day of Country Faire in October.

If the PTA cannot fill these positions, students and teachers will not receive the many benefits that our fundraising provides such as the TK-3rd grade Art Program, Field Trips, STEM Program, 3-5 grade English/Language Arts Program, Classrooms Supplies, and much more.

 Please send an email to president [at] foresthillpta.com if you are interested or have any questions about these positions.
