Rose Drive Parking Lot Safety

    Student safety and the safety of others is, of course, a primary concern of all of ours.  A huge thank you to all of our parents for driving slowly and safely through our valet parking with the extra attention, caution, and patience needed for the safety of our students.  Please remember to only allow students to get in and out of cars in our marked valet sections of the parking lot.  NEVER attempt to cross Rose Drive unless you are using the crosswalk.

Rose Drive Students Score 929!

The Academic Performance Index (API) scores were recently released. These scores show academic growth from year to year for each school. This measurement is based on the results of the state tests including the California Standards Tests (CSTs). The CST is closely aligned to the academic content standards that are taught at each grade level. Rose Drive School has worked hard to focus classroom instruction on the state standards. Through these outstanding efforts, our school has earned the high API score of 929, which is a six point increase from our high scores last year!  Congratulations to our students, staff, and parents for working together to achieve these great results!

Student Dress Code Guidelines

Now that we are experiencing warmer weather, please take the time to review some of our dress code standards from our Parent Handbook.

Sunglasses may only be worn for medical or prescriptive reasons.

Students may wear headwear for sun protection purposes only. Baseball caps with bills with appropriate logos or sayings on them are permitted for sun protection.

Students may not wear short shorts, tops with spaghetti-straps or tops that expose the midriff area.

Welcome Home!

The American Spirit is alive and well at PYLUSD and it showed on Tuesday, March 13th at Rose Drive.  Our school held a flag ceremony which was partly to surprise first grader, Shelby Ely, whose father came home from Afghanistan the night before.  Sergeant Ely was also in the first wave of soldiers who entered Iraq. More pictures and a heartwarming video is on the link below on the Register's website.
