For anyone wanting to volunteer at Plavan for 5 hours a week or more OR on ANY FIELD TRIP for Plavan, new guidelines require all volunteers meeting this criteria to get fingerprinted and have a Department of Justice Background Check. FVSD has graciously offered to help offset some of the cost of these requirements on our Volunteer Day on December 4th from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the District Office, located at 10055 Slater Avenue, Fountain Valley. Please take advantage of this day to reduce your cost of these procedures. Also, on this day, FVSD will be offering TB Screenings that are valid for 2 years, which are also required for all volunteers. Please see the attached information letters from the District for more information.

In case you may not have noticed, there was a lot of road construction this summer in preparation for a new traffic signal where the main crosswalk is on Warner. The traffic light has apparently been ordered and once it arrives will be installed. We were told hopefully sometime in 2019. The construction lengthened the left hand turn lane on Warner into the school main parking lot and blocked those trying to turn left out of the parking lot onto Warner. This changed our exit to a dual right turn lane, not a left or right turn lane. This means that two cars can turn right simultaneously onto Warner. Please use the outer (far left) turn lane if you need to immediately make a u-turn to go east on Warner. Please use the inner (far right) turn lane if you will continue straight on Warner or if turning right onto Bushard. Rules of dual turn lanes state that the furthest to the right, stays in the right lane on Warner. The outer turn lane will then take the 2nd lane on Warner, getting over to the left safely and using turn indicators. Please be cautious and courteous with other drivers who may have a smaller vehicle or less visibility on the inside turn lane. Thank you!

Navigate our parking lot, learn what you need to do in case of a student absence or tardy, and more! Please see the attached TIPS.
