Incoming 6th Grade Parent Night


Dear Families of Rising 6th Grade Cal Young Students,

We would like to invite current 5th graders and their parents & guardians to the Cal Young MS "Rising 6th Grade Welcome Night" on Thursday, May 29th at 6pm. This event is for all current 5th graders who will be attending Cal Young next school year. It will be a great opportunity to meet staff, learn more about middle school programs, and visit the building. We look forward to meeting all of you here at Cal Young that evening. Also, we wanted to let you know that we will be visiting your 5th graders in their own classrooms on May 22nd and 23rd. This will be a chance to answer their questions and hopefully help get them excited about middle school. Our 5th graders will also be visiting Cal Young on May 27th. We are looking forward to helping your student make a smooth transition to middle school! See you all at the Welcome Night on May 29th at 6pm. 

8th Grade Ticket Requests

The Ticket Request Form for 8th grade celebration closes this Friday, May 30th.

A reminder that all 8th grade students are automatically allotted 2 tickets. Families desiring additional tickets must request through the form. Once the form closes, tickets will be assigned 2 at a time until we are out or until all requests are fulfilled, whichever comes first.

**Please note: tickets are allotted per 8th grade student, not per requestor/household. There are no exceptions made for split households. **
