Parents Needed and Back to School Night

Please click here for the latest Connect HS Newsletter.

Here are some quick updates for our Connect High families:

Back to School Night Schedule (TOMORROW 10/3)
5:00-6:15 PM Families for Monday/Thursday Cohort
6:25-7:30 PM Families for Tuesday/Friday  Cohort

Da Vinci Connect School Site Council has been changed due to California Education Code.  In accordance with the Greene Act ( Ed Code 35140-35149), we are shifting away from School Site Council, and moving towards a Parent Advisory Council, beginning this school year! Much of the work will feel very similar to the work of SSC, reviewing LCAP, School Safety Plan, general program feedback however there are some changes:

 -Members of PAC are appointed, not elected
-There is a requirement for diverse representation within the members of the council, with the goal of representing the diversity of our overall population
-PAC is a review committee only, and will not “approve” LCAP as done in the past through SSC

If you are interested please show your interest here. Meeting dates for PAC are also indicated within this form

Complete A Meal Application Today. Qualify for College Application Fee Waivers, Low-Cost Internet, Utilities & More!

Thank you for helping to get the 2023-24 school year off to a great start!

Both the state and federal government require Da Vinci to report the number of students each year who qualify for free and reduced meals. Although meals are currently being provided to all students free of charge, Da Vinci’s percentage of students who qualify for free and reduced meals greatly impacts the amount of additional funding Da Vinci can receive.

Studies show that many eligible families, in particular middle school and high school families, do not complete the meal application each year leaving hundreds of thousands of dollars in funding for Da Vinci Schools on the table. Even a small increase in eligible forms collected results in significantly more money for ALL students.

We ask that every family complete a federal Meal Application by October 27th to maximize funding for ALL Da Vinci students.

Please fill out the application online at MySchoolApps.com. Only complete one application per family. This information will not be shared or utilized for any other purpose.

Based on your circumstances, your family may qualify for P-EBT food benefits, low-cost internet access, utilities assistance, fee waivers for college applications, SAT/ACT and Subject Test fee waivers, scholarships, and more!

Don’t delay — you may be eligible for significant savings while helping Da Vinci maximize funding for ALL students.

Visit MySchoolApps.com today!

If you need assistance, please contact Sara at meals@davincischools.org or visit www.davincischools.org/meals.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month – Community Service Club

Dear Da Vinci Connect Students!


October marks the beginning of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and we’re excited to share a heartfelt initiative with you.

On October 2nd and 3rd, we invite all students to join hands in a show of support by wearing pink!

By wearing pink, we not only raise awareness for breast cancer but also demonstrate our unity in the face of adversity. Each pink garment becomes a symbol of hope, reminding us of the importance of early detection and prevention!

Let’s come together, in pink, and make a profound statement about our commitment to making a difference. Your small gesture can lead to significant change!

We look forward to seeing our hallways and classrooms awash in shades of pink on these days. Thank you for embracing this initiative with open hearts.

The Community Service club (5)
