Santa Cruz Iron Man Volunteers Needed
Hello Wonderful Pacific Families, If you would like to support the 6th graders in attending science camp, please see the following fundraiser information below: This year we will be returning to Bike Aid Station 3. This will be at the dirt plot across from Cement Plant Road the same location as years past. This is where Highway One meets the railroad tracks right after Davenport, heading northbound. We will be a support group for the racers. We have the tasks of handoff and prep to provide the racers with food, drinks, and encouragement as they ride past! Sunday morning 9/8 we will be scheduled from 7am to 2pm. If you are available for all or any of this time we greatly appreciate it! Please be sure to sign up using this link for all those of who you wish to participate as they will be using this to prep our grant value as well as the volunteer materials such as shirts. Additionally, please pass this link on to friends and family who you think would be able to support as the more people who come, the more funding we receive. 
Save Time, Gas Money, and the Planet - Have Your Students Ride the Bus to and from School!
The Santa Cruz Metro has generously coordinated with us to provide new routes which make it convenient for students from Santa Cruz to ride the bus to school in the mornings and home in the afternoons! Many students and some staff already take the bus, so your child will not be alone. Youth ride free. More information. If your student will be riding the bus to or from school, please be sure to fill out This Form and give it to the office each school year. 
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:
If you share your reviews with [email protected], Elizabeth can also add them to the school website. Thanks so much!!! |
