Mr. Onstott’s Ag classes participated in Safety Day today!
The California Police Department, MI-MO Ambulance, and California Fire Department worked together to talk with students about safety in the Ag Shop, procedures to follow, and even played some games!
We love seeing education happen both in and out of the classroom! It’s a great day to be a Pinto!

Dear Seniors and Parents/Guardians,
We are excited to offer our seniors the opportunity to have an assigned parking space for the 2026–2027 school year. Please review the following information regarding senior parking spaces:
Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of next week, Mrs. Pagoada and Ms. Stark will be at the lunch shifts with a parking lot map. Seniors who have a Senior Parking Tag may let them know which available parking space they would like to choose for the year.
Mrs. Pagoada and Ms. Stark will record the senior's parking tag number on the selected space. The map will then be provided to our maintenance crew, who will paint the corresponding tag numbers on the selected parking spaces.
Please note: Seniors with Senior Parking Tags will not have assigned spaces during the first few days of next week. Until the spaces are marked by maintenance, parking will be first come, first served.
Once maintenance has painted the parking tag numbers on the selected spaces, seniors may park in their assigned space for the remainder of the school year.
Seniors may also chalk their parking space once it has been officially assigned. However, paint of any kind may not be used on the parking space.
Thank you for helping us make this process organized and fair for everyone. We look forward to seeing our seniors enjoy their designated parking spaces this year!
