At Loara Elementary School, our mission is to provide each of our scholars with an excellent educational experience in a supportive learning environment that promotes respect, responsibility, and integrity. It takes full participation and engagement of students, staff, and families to reach our goals of academic growth and positive social-emotional development.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
Regular Board of Education Meeting of April 8, 2026
Anaheim Elementary School District Staff Development Center
1001 S. East Street, Board Room - Building B, Anaheim. CA 92805 6:30 p.m.
The Board President is requested to declare a public hearing for the purpose of review and adoption of a waiver request to modify AESD's Extended School Year (ESY) program from 20 days (4 hours daily) to 16 days of instruction (5 hours daily). The shift in schedule will facilitate alignment with the dates of the general education summer instructional program, support increased opportunities for inclusive programming, reduce challenges for families with students in multiple programs, and support greater cohesion for staff and students.
Use of the waiver request process will also ensure the District remains in compliance with Ed Code Section 3043 (d) related to Extended School Year.
After hearing comments from the public, the Board President will give notice that a vote on this item is scheduled at the April 8, 2026, Regular Board meeting.
Jesús Chavarria, Superintendent
and Secretary of the Governing Board of the

School & District Parent & Family Engagement Policies 2025-2026
Research indicates that Parent and Family Engagement (PFE) help children achieve high academic standards. When schools work together with parents in school activities, and both schools and families engage in shared decision making regarding children’s education, students are more likely to acquire literacy at faster rates.
The links below contain the AESD and Parent & Family Engagement Policies. The policies are jointly developed with parents to establish objectives for meaningful parent and family involvement. (20 U.S.C. sections 6312, 6318[a][2])
