All of the class lists will be taped up to the windows by the front office on the Friday before the start of school.

On day one, please make sure you child comes prepared with a regular child’s size backpack (large enough to carry their folder back and forth), one of your child’s favorite healthy snacks, and a change of clothes. Daily supplies (pencils, paper, crayons, etc) will be supplied by the school, although the teachers will give out a list of items that we could use to help stock our classrooms on the first day.

There is an afterschool program for 2024-25, but space is limited due to staffing. Please contact the After School Program Coordinator for more information: Samia Little slittle@bacr.org

Please pack a small snack for your child in his or her backpack. Snacks should be healthy (no candy or soda allowed). Snack time is only 15 minutes long, so please pack a snack that can be consumed in that time. Fruit, yogurt, cereal bars, baby carrots, and string cheese are great choices.

Yes, please see this page on the district website.

Children should not arrive at school before 8:00; there is no supervision before then. The bell rings at 8:15, at which time students line up in front of their classroom.

Kindergarten ends at 1:30 pm daily. Students must be picked up from the kindergarten yard by a parent, guardian, or caregiver. Any student not picked up on time will be escorted to the office.

In the large lot below the kindergarten yard, or on Hazel or Mira Vista Avenues. There is also a small lot at the end of Claremont Avenue. There is no parking in the circle near the office—it is for staff only. Pick-up or drop-off at the circle is not allowed. Walking to school and carpooling are encouraged!

Please make sure your child is on time and in school every day. If your child is late, you must sign him or her in at the office and get a tardy slip. If your child must be absent, please call the office at (510) 231-1416 to report the abscence.

You will need to sign your child out of school. Please do not go to the classroom. Once you have signed your child out at the office, the staff will notify the teacher, and your child will be sent to the office.

There are currently three kindergarten classes. Individual daily activity schedules vary by teacher. Class sizes are dependent on district mandates. At Mira Vista, we have very strong parent volunteer involvement, and we aim to have parent volunteers daily in classrooms. The kindergarten area has a separate, fenced play area and structure designated only for kindergarten students.

Please click here for the district registration page for current registration dates. Please either register online or bring your completed materials to the school during office hours (9–3 pm, closed 12–1 for lunch).

Children must be 5 years of age on or before September 1 of the year they start kindergarten to be enrolled.
