San Carlos School District Home

Each month, our Spotlight on Excellence highlights a unique aspect of what makes San Carlos schools exceptional. On June 11, we proudly celebrated our year-end events that took place on campuses and this week’s 8th grade promotions. Trustees Sarah Kinahan and Tracy Park also shared highlights of the promotion ceremonies they attended and all Trustees expressed congratulations to the students.

Each month, our Spotlight on Excellence highlights a unique aspect of what makes San Carlos schools exceptional. On May 14, we proudly recognized and celebrated our 2025–26 retirees for their years of dedicated service to the students, families, and staff of the San Carlos School District. Their impact on our schools and community will be felt for years to come.

Summer 2026 is shaping up to be an exciting and productive season across the District. Key projects include Phase 2 of HVAC upgrades at Brittan Acres, Heather, and White Oaks Elementary Schools, the start of Phase 1 building envelope improvements at select sites, and the launch of Phase 1 of our Transitional Kindergarten expansion. Attend our Community Meetings on May 28 and visit our Measure H Bond Program page for more information and to explore project details by school site.

Our Community Liaison Site is designed to be a central place where families can find information, resources, and support to help their children thrive—academically, socially, and emotionally. On this site, you will find information about how we communicate with families, including parent communication protocols, upcoming events, and important dates. You’ll also find resources that support students’ social and emotional well-being, along with enrichment opportunities and programs offered through the District and our valued community partners.

As we wrap up the 2025–26 school year, the past few weeks have given us so many opportunities to celebrate the incredible growth and accomplishments of our learners. From Celebrations of Learning and art showcases, to performances, field days, and outdoor experiences, our schools have been filled with joy, creativity, and a deep sense of community.

San Carlos School District wants to ensure that all students have access to nutritious meals and other food assistance during the summer months when school is not in session. We encourage families to consider the following resources available in San Mateo County.
