Principals Message- Welcome Back Falcons!

Dear Venetia Valley Falcons,

I am extremely excited to welcome you all back to the Venetia Valley campus. I hope you and your families had a great summer and are eager to get back to school! The first day of school is Wednesday, August 19th, which is our weekly early release day. The first day of school is an exciting time for many of our students, along with other healthy emotions such as anxiety and curiosity. We look forward to working with your students to process these emotions to best prepare them to have a successful start to the 26/27 school year.

As you prepare for the school year, please know that all students will receive essential supplies from the school.  It allows you to focus on a backpack and a lunchbox.  We are looking forward to seeing you all on Wednesday, August 19th.

Student Drop Off

• The Cafeteria will be available at 8:00 am for students who would like to receive breakfast. Campus officially opens at 8:30am. Please be mindful of what time students are dropped off on campus to avoid your student being unsupervised while they wait for the cafeteria to open at 8am.

Parking

• Parking on campus is limited due to space constraints. Family/Guest parking is located in front of the school, or families should plan to park on the street if there are no open parking spaces. Please do not block student/staff entrances when temporarily parking on campus.

• If you wish to park for an extended period of time, please use the civic center Jury lot and enter campus through the side gate located on Roosevelt Avenue. This is also a great option to avoid morning drop-off traffic as staff members are stationed along the walk to school to supervise students.

• We suggest you use the drop-off lane to drop off and pick up your students. 

• Please be mindful and respectful of our neighbors and community organizations by not blocking driveways. 

District Forms on Aeries

• On Monday, August 10th, you will receive an email from SRCS asking you to login to your Aeries Parent Portal account to complete the back-to-school forms - this is called the Data Confirmation Process. The login links will be shared on Monday. 

• This process allows you to confirm or update your child’s information, including contact information, household income, emergency contacts, medical information and more. It also allows you to acknowledge required District policies and authorizations. 

• One of the steps is for you to enter your household income and the number of people in your household. This is required critical information for the District to ensure continued funding to support all students in SRCS, and your support in completing it is very appreciated.

Dear SRCS Families,

We look forward to welcoming students for the 2026-27 school year! As a reminder, the first day of school is Wednesday, Aug. 19. 

Important back-to-school forms are now available online in the Aeries Parent Portal that you are required to review and complete. Please complete the Data Confirmation Process for each child in your family who attends SRCS by Sept. 4 to ensure we have accurate emergency and health information.

The Aeries Parent Portal offers secure online access to your child’s school records, including attendance, health information, state testing reports and more. 

How to Complete Your Back-to-School Forms

1. Log in to the Aeries Parent Portal using the appropriate link below.
2. Follow the on-screen prompts for the Data Confirmation Process.
3. In each section, select “Confirm and Continue” in the sidebar to move forward.
4. Review and update your child’s emergency contact, health and other required information.

During this process, you will also:

• Review and acknowledge District policies and authorizations, including the 2026–27 Annual Notice to Parents/Guardians [English | Spanish].
• Secure school funding by providing confidential household income information for state and federal programs.
• NEW! Support student mental health services. SRCS is participating in California’s Children and Youth Behavioral Health Initiative (CYBHI) Fee Schedule Program to help us sustain student counseling, wellness and other mental health services.
  • During Data Confirmation, you will be asked to provide insurance information, review related notices and authorize SRCS to share information and seek reimbursement for eligible school-based behavioral health services. By law, participation does not affect your insurance coverage or create costs for families.
  • Reimbursement funding goes directly back to SRCS to support and strengthen essential wellness and mental health services for students.
