News & Announcements

The spring brings with it many new after school enrichment class opportunities here at Brittan Acres! Please click through to check out these amazing opportunities right here on campus.

The Brittan Acres Walk-A-Jog (WAJ) is a wonderful tradition dating back 35 years and our biggest community event of the year. This is a fantastic event for the whole family! The students run, jog or walk around the BA blacktop, which provides a unique opportunity for the school community to gather while exercising and spending quality time together. Join friends and families for a casual carnival with food and games. We hope every BA student can participate!

The San Carlos School District is proud to announce that all six of its elementary schools have been selected to receive the 2023 California Distinguished School Award - Arroyo Upper Elementary, Arundel Elementary, Brittan Acres Elementary, Heather Elementary, Mariposa Upper Elementary and White Oaks Elementary.

On Wednesday, we will be celebrating all things SCEF as the San Carlos Education Foundation’s fall “SCEF DAY” has moved to November 30th to align with Giving Tuesday. Giving Tuesday is a day that encourages people to give, collaborate and celebrate generosity.

With the holidays drawing near, we would like to invite you to extend your holiday giving by donating a grocery store or toy store gift card, such as Safeway or Target, to be given to a Brittan Acres family in need this year. We are collecting gift cards now and will distribute them to families for their holiday celebrations. Thank you to our community for helping with this yearly tradition to make sure that all families feel supported during the holidays.
