We all contribute to an interdependent, green community that promotes creativity, rigor and a growth mindset in preparing students for success.

Did you know that you have control of how you receive messages from Los Cerritos via School Messenger? Some families enjoy the recorded phone calls, but others prefer texts or emails instead. If you'd like to change your preferences, please click below to open my locker, which contains directions for doing so through your ParentVUE account. We want you to stay informed about current events, but in the way that best works for you.

Please check out our new uniform guidelines! Go to the menu above and select "Schedule/Uniforms," then "Uniform Policy" to see the changes. The teachers all voted with input from parents, and we think you'll be pleasantly surprised. The most notable changes are that now in addition to the use of dark blue jeans (with no rips or marks) students may wear jeans shorts as bottoms. Students can still wear navy leggings (as long as the shirt worn with it is finger tip length) as bottoms, and the restriction limiting the color of accessories (such as socks, tights, and hair bows/ties) remains lifted. These changes should make shopping easier for parents, and life a little more comfortable for our kids. On the other hand, we will be much more strict next year about the color of outerwear that we allow. Sweaters and sweatshirts will need to be navy blue or red, with no logo, or with Los Cerritos artwork. Winter jackets and raincoats of any color will be allowed over a navy or red sweater, but only while students are outside on the playground. Thank you for supporting our Uniform Policy.

Parent VUE:  A New Website for Parents (Un Nuevo sitio web para padres)
Parent VUE is a website that allows parents to view their children’s current and historical information, including daily attendance, grades, report cards, test scores, discipline, graduation status, preparation for college and more.  It is also a one-stop location for links to other parent services including School Loop and MySchoolBucks (School meal accounts).

With one simple activation, parents can view information on all of their children, from elementary school to high school.  Parents also will be able to update emergency card information electronically.

Los Cerritos' original school bell was used between the years 1913-1946. It was presented to the LBUSD by the Los Cerritos PTA and school patrons to mark the fine tradition of school and community.

For texts and emails please make sure to sign up for Schoolloop. This is not an automatic notification you mush see Michael, the school Secretary, to be on the notification list.  

Schoolloop allows you to:

• Receive school bulletins
• Receive notices from the Principal, PTA and school
• Notifies you of school events (picture day, minimum days, etc.)

To reduce cost and paper waste much of the school information now goes out electronically.
