El Monte Middle School

Parents/Guardians, the rainy season has arrived! Staying dry at school on a rainy day is all about preparation. Please send your child to school with an umbrella, a waterproof raincoat or poncho, and/or waterproof boots. It can be wise to pack a small towel or an extra pair of socks in their bag, just in case they get wet despite their best efforts. This will help them stay dry and comfortable as they move between classes or go outside for their breaks.

Also, please expect heavy traffic after 7:30 AM. To avoid being stuck in traffic, please drop off your student before 7:30 AM. The cafeteria opens at 6:15 AM.
