There is NO SCHOOL on Friday, Feb. 18 and Monday, Feb. 21 in observance of Presidents’ Day.

Thank you to all those who supported the Kids’ Heart Challenge! Finney raised over $1000 for the American Heart Association, and had a great time jumping rope at our culminating event on Thursday 2/17. Thank you, Finney PTA, for all your help organizing the Kids’ Heart Challenge.

Weekly testing at Finney helps us slow the spread of Covid-19. It also removes the burden from you to take your children to get tested after every exposure and will fill the weekly testing requirement for sports team participation. You can sign your child up for Tuesday testing at school.covidclinic.org. To register your account, click into the parent/guardian tab. Fill in your information and then your children’s information. You will need each child’s student ID#. Once done, you will see Part Two which is ordering a test for your children. This second step is needed to have a test ready by Tuesday. After the first order, the order will repeat itself every week with no further action needed by you. You will receive an email confirming Your Order has been Placed. For questions about testing, contact k12@covidclinic.org. Those who have had Covid-19 within the past 90 days should not test with Covid Clinic.

The next CVESD B-LAC (Black Learners Advisory Council) is Feb. 24. Learn more about B-LAC here.

Chula Vista Community Collaborative’s Family Resource Centers can help with Medi-Cal, Covered California, Mental Health Services, assistance with filling out forms, Domestic Violence, and more.
