Dear Parents and Guardians,
Due to adverse weather conditions and the presence of lightning in a 10 mile area, we will be implementing a delayed dismissal procedure today at all of our elementary schools. The safety of our students is of paramount importance, and we are taking these precautions to ensure their well-being. During delayed dismissal all students who ride the bus or walk home will be kept in the school until the lightning has passed.
Parents are welcome to pick up their students by coming to the office to sign them out. Please bring a photo ID with you to the office.
We sincerely appreciate your understanding and cooperation during these weather-related delays. Your child's safety is our top priority, and we are committed to making informed decisions that ensure their well-being.
Thank you for your consideration and support.
π’ Friendly Reminder for Parents! π’
Today is an early release day! Here are the dismissal times:
π« Buena High School: 12:00 PM
π« Elementary Schools: 12:45 PM
π« JCMS: 2:15 PM
Thank you all for a fantastic first day! π Please make sure to arrange for timely pick-ups. Have a wonderful afternoon! π

Dear Palominas Families,
We hope this letter finds you well and excited for the upcoming school year. We wanted to inform you about some important updates regarding transportation for the 2024-2025 school year.
This year, both Sierra Vista Unified School District (SVUSD) and Palominas School District have encountered challenges with transportation due to bus driver vacancies and the limited availability of those able to fill these positions. As a result, SVUSD buses will be providing transportation for Palominas students to Buena High School, a change from previous years.
To ensure a smooth transition, we will be utilizing the routes that Palominas created last year. Please note that these routes may change based on ridership, but we will provide ample notice of any adjustments. All bus routes can be found on our website: https://www.svusd68.org/page/transportation
We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to all families for their patience and understanding as we navigate these challenges. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated, especially during the first few weeks of school as we work out the details.
Thank you for your continued support.
Warm regards,
SVUSD Transportation
