School Info

*School operates daily from 8:00am - 2:23pm. Students should already be on campus when the warning bell rings at 7:55am. Attendance/tardies will be strictly monitored and will be referred chronically absent and tardy students to the Student Attendance and Review Board (SARB) per district policy. Students not in after school programs must be picked up promptly at 2:23pm.

 

*Breakfast/Tardy Students: Breakfast will continue to be served in the lunch area beginning at 7:45 am. Tardy students who arrive after that time must go to the office to get a tardy slip and go to class. If you know your child will be late, please feed them before they arrive at school.

 

*Traffic: Please drop off/pick up your child in a safe manner, observing all traffic rules and signs around the school. The Sheriff’s Traffic Enforcement or CHP may issue tickets.

 

*School Uniforms: We are now a uniform school and all students are strongly encouraged to wear them daily. The uniform consists of navy blue pants, shorts, skirts or skorts, Navy blue, light blue or white collar shirts. Shoes must be closed toe, lace up or have straps. No open toe sandals, slip-ons or flip flops allowed. All students are encourage to have a school spirit shirt to wear on special days and on field trips. Spirit shirts can be purchased (see order form in opening school packet/in the main office.)

*Volunteering: Requires a TB test with negative results that was done within 6 months of beginning as a volunteer on the school campus. See office staff for application.

*54th St. School is an award winning Nutrition Network school. Per LAUSD’s Healthy Eating Policy, the following unhealthy food/drink items are strongly discouraged on campus: candy, hot chips/Cheetos, Takis, high sugar snacks such as donuts, cakes, cupcakes, sodas and sports drinks for snacks/lunch. Those items will be taken from students. We also do not allow birthday celebrations at school. There is a rise in the number of students who are allergic to the ingredients in many items served at parties. We thank you for supporting our effort to ensure that your child engages in healthy eating at school.

 

*All 54th St. School students are able to eat free breakfast and lunch one time per day. You are strongly encouraged to send healthy snacks such as veggies, yoghurt, cheese/crackers and fruit for your child to eat during recess or after school.

 

*Students will not be allowed to take medication of any kind at school without written directions from the doctor on a District Request for Medicine Administration form which is available in the main office. All medicines are kept locked in the Main Office. Expired medications will not be administered. Students may not keep medicine in their backpacks. Please alert your child’s teacher and the office of any allergies that your child may have.

Great News!

 

*All K-5 students will be issued a school iPad or Chromebook for use in the classroom daily to support their learning!

 

*Students will be using many great programs to support them: i-Ready diagnoses and instructs in literacy and numeracy. 

 

*We have added partnerships that will support students academically and provide enrichment experiences.

We, the 54th St. School Staff, look forward to working with you to maximize your child’s academic achievement and social growth this school year. Thank you for your support!
