Dear Bay Laurel Families:

Welcome to the 2024-25 school year!  I am excited to welcome our new and returning Dolphins back to school.  Please be sure that you have taken a close look at our Bell Schedule for the school year so you are aware of the different dismissal times for our students.  Every Wednesday is a short day due to teacher collaboration. The first day of school is scheduled for August 21, 2024.  All grades will follow our Wednesday bell schedule on the first day of school.

During your registration/re-registration process, you will find required forms as well as important information from the school and our amazing Bay Laurel PFA.  Please take the time to carefully read through all of the documents and forms before you finalize the online registration process.  You can also find a wealth of information about our school events through the PFA website: http://www.baylaurelpfa.org/

Las Virgenes Unified School District participates in the National School Lunch and Breakfast Programs. Even though breakfast and lunch for this school year will be free again as part of the Universal Free Meals Program, all families should complete the online meal application to take advantage of its other benefits like reduced bus pass fee. Only complete one application per family. The information you provide is completely private and may help Bay Laurel qualify for other state or federally-funded school benefits.
