The Annual Parent Meeting for returning families will be held twice, once at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, May 8 and again at 3 p.m. on Monday, May 20. Please click here to RSVP at your earliest convenience for one of the meetings, which will be held in person on the CSArts-SGV campus.

IMPORTANT ATTENDANCE UPDATES | |
|
Unreported Absences
Attention parents/guardians: As a reminder, TODAY, Friday, March 22, is the deadline for all unreported absences and truancies from the second semester to be cleared with the Attendance Office. Please review your student’s attendance record on the Aeries parent portal and reach out to attendance@sgv.csarts.net to report the details for any absence marked A (absent), Z (truant), or G (partial day truancy).
Early Release Process
To aid in the early release process, the Attendance Office will no longer be delivering early release slips to students in class. Instead, if a student needs to leave school early, they must come and pick up their early release slip during one of their school breaks – Nutrition, Lunch, or Office Hours. Then, when they reach the time of their early release, they can show the slip to their teacher in order to be dismissed.
| |
Class of 2024 families: Please take some time to review the March Senior Bulletin, which includes important information for students and parents/guardians about Senior Week, auditions for the graduation ceremony, and graduation parking information. All bulletins are also posted to the CSArts-SGV Senior Page. | |
|
Let us celebrate YOU! Submit your off-campus successes to be featured in State of the Art, CSArts-SGV’s special webpage spotlighting the accomplishments of our students, alumni, faculty, and staff. You can submit your accomplishments and successes here. We can’t wait to see all the exciting things you have been up to!
All accomplishments are posted at the conclusion of the semester in which they are submitted. Once the Spring 2024 State of the Art is available for viewing, we will send out an email with the direct link. Past State of the Art accomplishments are always available to view at www.sgv.csarts.net/Accomplishments.

SCHOOL SAFETY UPDATES & REMINDERS | |
Morning Drop-Off – Highland Parking Lot
In an attempt to improve morning traffic, CSArts-SGV is exploring using the west gate near the 100 Building as a ‘relief’ drop-off area when traffic is backed up between the Duarte Performing Arts Center (PAC) and the Music Building. If you are stopped in this area and Assistant Principal Leon Metoyer, or another staff member, is by the flagpole (between the Music Building and the 100 Building) you may allow your student to exit the car at this point. Thank you for your assistance in keeping the drop-off process as streamlined as possible.
