Dear Sequoia Families,  It sounds as if power is beginning to be restored to some areas near Sequoia and likely everyone by this afternoon. We will stay with the original learning schedule for today that was provided to you by your teacher on Monday. Please plan to return to our normal school schedule tomorrow. In order to give staff time to prepare, we will reschedule our folder pick up/drop off day for Friday from 7:45-5:00pm.  Stay safe and take care, Mrs, Clark

The regularly scheduled RVUSD board meeting for this evening via Zoom will continue to be held at 6:00pm. However, due to the current power shutdown event we will be moving important celebratory items (honoring employees of the month) and informational items of interest to a special board meeting to be held on Wednesday, September 16th at 6:00. We will be sticking to basic district business this evening.

Dear RVUSD Families, PG&E alerted us this morning that the district and many of our families will likely be impacted by a Planned Power Shutdown event scheduled over the next two days. We were informed that the following school sites will be de-energized for Tuesday and Wednesday during school hours: Austin Creek, Sequoia, RVCS- Sequoia, Whited, Binkley and Madrone. This power shutdown will impact our distance learning plans for the next two days. Please look for more information and details from your school principal and teachers over the course of this afternoon and evening. Regretfully Extended Care programs at those five sites will need to be closed for these two days. Home Study and Rincon Valley Partnerships can also expect communication from your coordinators around learning expectations for the next couple of days. For students who attend Spring Creek, Matanzas, RVCS- Matanzas and Village, you will also be getting information/details from your principals and teachers in regards to how this PSPS event might impact your child’s learning over the next two days. Although these schools will not be de-energized, learning could still be impacted by the power shutdown event happening elsewhere in our district.
