"Hello Families and Students, We hope this message finds you safe and well. At Bret Harte Union High School District, we take considerable pride in our school and services to our students and community. Unfortunately, we are currently experiencing a severe bus driver shortage that will likely impact student transportation. Due to the shortage of drivers, we may need to cancel routes and bus services, including transportation to and from school, as well as transportation for our athletic teams. While school transportation by the district is not a requirement under California State Law, we will continue to do all we can to transport students to and from school. We understand the inconvenience and burden that this may place upon you and your family. We strongly suggest, speaking with friends and neighbors to develop a backup transportation plan in case routes are canceled. If a route does need to be canceled, we will make every attempt to notify you as early as possible. We will continue to advertise, search for, and hire qualified drivers. If you know of anyone who may be interested in being a school bus driver, have them visit our website brethartebullfrogs.org, and then go to employment. - Thank you, Bret Harte Union High School District" Sent via IC Messenger 9/5/23 3:00 PM

"Good afternoon Bullfrogs! We would like to welcome you to the 2023-2024 school year. Over the past few months we have been steadily preparing our campus and staff for this school year. We will kick off the school year with our New Student Orientation on Tuesday, August 15th. The New Student Orientation, is designed to support all freshmen and any other new students enrolled for the 2023/43 school year. Orientation begins at 10:00 am in the Lower Gym (big building in the middle of campus). Throughout the day, students will have a chance to reconnect with old friends, create new friendships, tour the campus and meet their teachers. Students will also have the opportunity to pay school-related fees (i.e.. PE clothes, bus pass, ASB sticker), checkout a school-issued Chromebook, and have school photos taken. The days ends with lunch and a pool party from 2:00 – 3:00pm at the Bret Harte Aquatic Center. Students who do not wish to participate in lunch and the pool can be picked up early. A parent/guardian must check out the students at the attendance window located at the Front Office. For more information, please reach out to Tyra Dragomanovich at, tdragomanovich@bhuhsd.k12.ca.us Our school year will officially begin on Wednesday, August 16th with a start time of 8:00am and end time of 3:00pm.
