Don't Be Late That First Day of School... Check for Bell Times Changes

Although the majority of San Diego Unified's bell times will be unchanged in 2009-10, a number of schools have modified their schedules for the new school year and one campus, CPMA (San Diego Creative, Performing and Media Arts Middle School) is making major changes.

Bell time changes can range from changes every day, to only a revision of a miminum day schedule. Check with your school to determine the correct starting and ending times for your child.

CPMA was asked to make major changes in its schedule to accommodate streamlined bus scheduling. A magnet school, many of CPMA's students ride buses and the new scheduling will save San Diego Unified about $1.5 million.

The schedule changes will take effect when school begins on Sept. 8.

The schools with changes, as of July 8, 2009:

• Elementary Schools
  Adams, Angier, Baker, Bay Park, Boone, Central, Cherokee Point, Crown Point, Cubberly, Curie, Del Sol Academy/Whittier, Edison, Encanto, Ericson, Florence, Gage, Hage, Hardy, Hawthorne, Hearst, Johnson, Joyner, La Jolla Elementary, Loma Portal, Marvin, McKinley, Parks, Riley, Ross, Rowan, Toler, Walker.
