WATER! WATER! WATER!
Please purchase or borrow a water bottle (insulated preferred) for your student and fill with cold water and ice each day if possible. We highly recommend that the bottle is at least 24oz. Water fountains are off but water filling stations will be available on campus for refills.  The district is providing water bottles for students to use in emergencies and when they need refills.  Let us try not to flood landfills with more plastic water bottles.

Student Drop off / Pick up   click here for turn around map

- Do not drop students off in the front parking lot -
- After passing the front parking lot, please create two lines of traffic -
We thank you for being courteous drivers. We understand it's a stressful 15 minutes. It's important to keep students safe as they walk from cars & the parking lot.

Student Parking Off Campus
- Do not park in Safeway parking lot. Students WILL BE TOWED -
Please remind students to park legally and safely in the surrounding neighborhood. We strive to be good neighbors, and we rely on parents to help their students understand what it means to be courteous and safe drivers/parkers.

Water Fountains Turned Off - Bring Water Bottles
Drinking fountains will be turned off until further notice for SUSD Covid mitigation plan. Water-filling stations are available to ensure that students are able to remain well-hydrated. Students are encouraged to bring their own refillable water bottles.
EARLIER DATES NOW AVAILABLE FOR ONE LUNCH VOLUNTEERS
AHS One Lunch is BACK + we need your help!
Can you lend a hand at Arcadia at lunchtime?  We planned for One Lunch volunteers to start on September 2, but we just learned that the district is allowing us to start earlier - and the cafeteria staff needs our help.  We added dates to the SignUpGenius starting today (August 16).  Volunteers will report to the office at 11:30 and will help out as needed during lunch.  You do not need to sign up for a recurring shift - you can sign up for one or a few.  This is a fun and rare way to be on campus - please grab a friend and sign up.  PLEASE NOTE that volunteers must be fully vaccinated and wear a mask while on campus.  More information about what volunteers will be doing is included on the SignUp.  If you have any questions, please contact Karen Treon at ktreon@gmail.com.  Thank you! 
Nurse's Corner
AHS Nurse Needs a Copy of Student Immunizations (not Covid)
If you received email from AHS Nurse requesting IMMUNIZATIONS, please respond with the updated record to arcadianurse@susd.org via a PDF format.

 

If you have any questions please email arcadianurse@susd.org . Your students may reach us during the day if they have any medical concerns, comments, or questions. Be well and Stay safe!
