Early Learning Center/Preschools are Now Enrolling for Next Year!

Looking for a nurturing, engaging preschool program for your 2- or 3-year-old? San Carlos School District’s Early Learning Preschool Program is enrolling for next year!

Our play-based early learning programs help young children build confidence, friendships, independence, and the foundational skills they need for a successful transition to school.

We offer preschool programs at all four SCSD elementary campuses — Arundel, Brittan Acres, Heather, and White Oaks — with several program options to fit the needs of our families. Attending preschool on an elementary campus is also a wonderful way for children and families to become part of their future school community and start building friendships early.

FREE Preschool May Be Available!
State-funded preschool spaces are currently available at Arundel Elementary School for eligible families. For example, a family of four earning up to $127,338 annually may qualify for FREE preschool — and our team can help you determine your eligibility.

Tours start THIS WEEK! Sign up HERE

Measure K Information

Measure K Parcel Tax Information

The San Carlos School Board placed Measure K on the November 3rd ballot. The cost to local property owners could be $489 a year or $40.75 a month. State funding alone is unable to provide SCSD with sufficient funds to maintain the district’s high-quality education.

Measure K could support the people and programs that directly serve students, including:
• Teachers and staff
• Core academic programs
• Student support services
• High-quality educational programs and learning opportunities
• Maintaining strong instruction across our schools

Parcel Taxes = People + Programs

What Would Measure K Parcel Tax Funds Continue to Support?

Last week, we shared how bond funding supports our school buildings and facilities. This week, we’re taking a closer look at the other side of local school funding: parcel taxes.

Unlike bond funding, parcel tax dollars support the people and programs that directly serve students, including:
• Teachers and staff
• Core academic programs
• Student support services
• High-quality educational programs and learning opportunities
• Maintaining strong instruction across our schools

It’s an easy way to remember the difference:
Bonds = Buildings
Parcel Taxes = People + Programs

Principal's Message

Welcome to Brittan Acres!
 
Our school is a place where children are known, valued, and encouraged to grow at their own pace. Every day, I see students who are curious, creative, and eager to learn, and I’m grateful to be part of a community that supports them so deeply.
 
At BA, we focus on building strong relationships. When children feel safe and connected, they take risks, make friends, solve problems, and discover what they’re capable of. Our teachers and staff work hard to create classrooms where students are seen as individuals and where every child has access to meaningful learning and joyful moments throughout the day.
 
We’re also working together to build consistent routines across the school that help students understand expectations and feel confident. When families, staff, and students are aligned, we create a school culture where everyone can thrive.
 
I look forward to getting to know each of you and partnering with you throughout the year. Thank you for being part of our Brittan Acres community. It’s an honor to serve your children and support the incredible work that happens here every day.
 
Warmly,
Jude Noyes
Principal, Brittan Acres Elementary School
