Hi CT and Loma families,

As you prepare for the next school year please remember that Loma Prieta School District has a High School bus route to help get your children to school. The bus has several stops along Summit Road and Old Santa Cruz Highway for your convenience. This bus is also used by Loma and CT students who need a ride up from Los Gatos in the morning. If you have any questions please contact Skip Penny our Transportation Supervisor at

s.penny@loma.k12.ca.us

We encourage you to consider using our school buses to transport your child to and from school to reduce the campus traffic and increase our parking lot safety. Bus pass information is available in both school offices.

It’s time to start planning for summer enrichment activities, and Kids & Company is here to help with “Summer Stars” Day Camp. Each week of camp is based around a different theme, and all include a fun-filled field trip, swimming, games, crafts, an optional dress-up day, and science lessons.

The summer camp program incorporates National Best Program Standards for Extended Day School Programs by including scheduled time for the “3Rs”. Our camp will include science, history, nutrition, and activities to increase the self-esteem of our campers. Our child-to-staff ratio is 12:1 or better on days when the campers remain on campus, and 7:1 or better on field trip days.

The program is flexible by design so you can enroll for the full summer, or only choose to sign-up for certain weeks. Families can also choose which days during each camp to attend. So, whether you are looking for weekly enrichment or an occasional adventure right here on the mountain, Kids & Company has a camp for you. For more information, please call 408 353 – KIDS (5437)

Or see our website at https://www.loma.k12.ca.us/Page/363

We have 5 more spots left for the first week and 16 spots left for the second week. Don't miss out on Sports Camp with Arias and Patino.

July 10th - July 21st, 2023
