Hello Allen Families and Staff,
We are thrilled to welcome our new principal to Allen Elementary, Lizeth Lopez. If you have not yet done so, please read Dr. Reyes’ letter here:

The Month of April
Arab American Heritage Month is celebrated in April to recognize Arab American histories and cultures, and to pay tribute to Arabic cultures & the many contributions of Arab Americans to the United States. Sonia Sotomayor Elementary School (SSES) and the Chula Vista Elementary School District celebrate and honor the diversity in our community!
April is also Autism Awareness Month. The recognition raises awareness about autism acceptance and promotes inclusion and connectedness for people with autism. April is also the Month of the Military Child! Every April, all month long, we celebrate the courage, perseverance and tenacity demonstrated by our military-connected children, youth and teens and what they mean to our community.
Do you receive School Messenger emails and communication from our district? Be sure to check www.cvesd.org and bookmark our district’s website and follow its social media:

If you have multiple children attending schools in the Chula Vista Elementary School District next year, you will receive an email for each child in your family.
If your child is not attending a Chula Vista Elementary School District school next year, please contact the school office to inform us at (619) 479-3662. Kindly note that students who will be transitioning to Sweetwater Union High School District for seventh grade (middle school) next year do not need to notify CVESD about this, but will need to complete registration processes with that district via https://www.sweetwaterschools.org/.
