Thank you very much, Jacob Jensen, Happy Camp Elementary School Superintendent
Good morning Happy Camp Elementary School, this is Jacob Jensen your new Superintendent/Principal. I just got off the phone with the Siskiyou County Office of Education Superintendent Allen Carver who shared that the Operations Manager for the fires in our area has asked that both Happy Camp High School and Happy Camp Elementary pause the opening of school until Wednesday the 23rd. At this time, we are NOT starting school on Monday the 21st, but instead we will plan to welcome students back on Wednesday the 23rd. Please share this information with everyone in the area. I am keeping in close contact with the County Office of Education and if anything changes, I will let you know immediately. Thank you!
Attention Parents and guardians of Happy Camp Elementary school. We are sorry for the inconvenience, but due to the fact we currently do not have a bus driver, there will be no bus service until further notice. Please remember school starts this Monday the 21st at 8:00 so have your student here before that time. We have hired a new bus driver and that person is currently going through training. We will let you know as soon as the bus is available again. Again, we apologize for the inconvenience. If you have any questions please contact the front office.
