Dear SRUSD Family,
As we prepare for the 2020-2021 school year, I want to give you updates on the current educational guidelines and ways Santa Rita will focus on student safety.
-
Teachers and staff have been working together in teams to plan both Safety Measures and Instructional Models.
-
The guidelines from the California Department of Education require schools to consider a hybrid schedule in order to limit the total number of students on campus at any one time for safe social distancing.
-
The hybrid model for Santa Rita will be based on a Cohort Model, wherein some students will receive instruction on campus Mondays and Tuesdays and the other students will be on campus Thursdays and Fridays. Each group will receive instruction through Google Classroom on their respective off-campus days, three days per week.
-
To ensure the safety of our students, campuses will be deep cleaned between the cohorts on Wednesdays and Saturdays. This will disinfect between the student groups. These will be in addition to the daily cleaning services.
-
Students who are unable to attend on campus classes will have the option of receiving all instruction online.
-
When state and local guidelines determine that it is safe, schools will open fully.
-
SRUSD teachers are working hard to develop rigorous and appropriate instruction.
-
Your school will be sending out additional information regarding reopening and student schedules in July.
-
We miss our SRUSD students and families and are looking forward to seeing you soon.

Estimada familia de SRUSD,
Mientras nos preparamos para el año escolar 2020-2021, quiero brindarles actualizaciones sobre las pautas educativas actuales y las formas en que Santa Rita se centrará en la seguridad de los estudiantes.
-
Los maestros y el personal han estado trabajando juntos en equipos para planificar tanto las medidas de seguridad como los modelos de instrucción.
-
Las pautas del Departamento de Educación de California requieren que las escuelas consideren un horario híbrido para limitar el número total de estudiantes en el campus en cualquier momento para un distanciamiento social seguro.
-
El modelo híbrido para Santa Rita se basará en un modelo de cohorte, en el que algunos estudiantes recibirán instrucción en la escuela los lunes y martes y los otros estudiantes estarán en la escuela los jueves y viernes. Cada grupo recibirá instrucción a través de Google Classroom en sus respectivos días fuera del campus, tres días por semana.
-
Para garantizar la seguridad de nuestros estudiantes, los campus se limpiarán en profundidad entre las cohortes los miércoles y sábados. Esto desinfectara entre los grupos de estudiantes. Estos serán adicionales a los servicios de limpieza diaria.
-
Los estudiantes que no puedan asistir a clases en el campus tendrán la opción de recibir toda la instrucción en línea.
-
Cuando las pautas estatales y locales determinan que es seguro, las escuelas abrirán por completo.
-
Los maestros de SRUSD están trabajando duro para desarrollar una instrucción rigurosa y apropiada.
-
Su escuela enviará información adicional sobre la reapertura y los horarios de los estudiantes en julio.
-
Extrañamos a nuestros estudiantes y familias de SRUSD y esperamos verlos pronto.

About Us
The Santa Rita Union School District (SRUSD), located in the heart of the Salinas Valley of Monterey County, and is comprised of approximately 3600 students from Pre-School through Eighth Grade. We are located in the heart of "Steinbeck Country" a region best known for its mild central coast climate and the hometown of Nobel Prize winning recipient, John Steinbeck.
Made up of four elementary schools, and two middle schools and a state preschool, all located within a five mile radius of each other, our district is characterized by rich cultural and linguistic diversity and a ‘home town’ feel evidenced by a warm, welcoming and caring community.
Our classrooms are richly infused with technology, and we are a 1 to 1 ratio Chromebook district which means every student in the district has personal access to an educational technology device within the curriculum.
SRUSD values its community: School Board, District Leadership, Teachers, Parents, and Students. All place significant value on the ability of SRUSD to successfully educate students within the context of a small, vibrant and fully engaged district. The LCAP has been a catalyst for unifying the SRUSD’s vision around instructional excellence and academic achievement for all students.
