We are looking for people who might be available to substitute when classroom aides, lunch aides, yard supervisors, and/or after school recreation staff are absent. Having substitutes available makes a HUGE difference in the smooth running of the school. It is a great way to help Pacific School out while earning a little extra money. If this is something you might be interested in doing, please contact Elizabeth Andrews, eandrews@pacificesd.org, or Eric Gross, egross@pacificesd.org. Sick? COVID+? Exposed? Confused?
There have been some COVID cases on campus during the first week of school. Please go HERE to get the updated information about how to handle kids with symptoms, positive test results, and/or exposures. Our guidelines are based on the county guidelines. Also, it is fair to assume there is a strong likelihood of being exposed to Covid-19 if you or your child is in public, including here on campus. We will not be sending out individual notifications.

Please Review Pacific!
One easy, zero-cost way you can support Pacific School is by writing a short review of our TK-6th school and/or Pacific Preschool. Just three minutes of your time makes a big difference! Right now we have very few reviews, which makes it harder for families to find out about our award-winning programs and small, supportive community. Please Review Us Now:
Have more time? Please leave a review in any of these additional places:
If you share your reviews with eandrews@pacificesd.org, Elizabeth can also add them to the school website. Thanks so much!!! Youth Ride Santa Cruz Metro Free
