Dear Parents and Guardians,

Please be aware that our school district is currently experiencing a district-wide Internet and phone system outage.

While our main lines may receive some calls, phone service is generally unreliable at this time. If you need to contact your child's school urgently today, the most reliable method is to visit the front office in person.

Please rest assured that our students and staff are safe, and normal school operations are continuing. Our IT team is actively working with service providers to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.

We will update you as soon as service is restored. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

ACTUALIZACIÓN: A las 2:33 p. m., el servicio se ha restablecido con éxito. Gracias por su paciencia y comprensión.

Estimados padres y tutores:

Les informamos que nuestro distrito escolar está experimentando actualmente una interrupción generalizada de los servicios de Internet y telefonía.

Si bien es posible que nuestras líneas principales reciban algunas llamadas, el servicio telefónico es, por lo general, poco fiable en este momento. Si necesita comunicarse con urgencia con la escuela de su hijo hoy, la opción más segura es acudir personalmente a la oficina administrativa del centro.

Les aseguramos que nuestros estudiantes y el personal se encuentran bien y que las actividades escolares continúan con normalidad. Nuestro equipo de informática está trabajando activamente con los proveedores de servicios para solucionar el problema lo antes posible.

Les informaremos en cuanto se restablezca el servicio. Gracias por su paciencia y comprensión.

What a wonderful way to kick off another year of our Newcomer Program at the elementary school! 🎉

A huge THANK YOU to Mrs. Lee for another year of dedication, care, and support for our Newcomer students. We are so grateful to have you helping our students feel welcomed, confident, and ready to learn! ❤️

Here’s to a fantastic year of learning, belonging, and growing together! 🌎📚✨

We want to recognize John Swett Unified School District () for officially proclaiming September 2026 as National Hunger Action Month across Rodeo, Crockett, Port Costa, and neighboring communities!

This resolution is a meaningful stand against hunger in our county, highlighting the importance of programs like Summer Meal Service and the Child and Adult Care Food Program in making sure students and families have access to nutritious food year-round. With over 10% of Contra Costa County facing food insecurity, it means a lot to see local institutions like John Swett USD step up and use their voice. Thank you to Superintendent Dr. Leticia Bhatia and the entire Governing Board for taking action.

Don't forget to wear orange this September, the official color of hunger relief, and join the movement to end hunger in Contra Costa County.
