The calendars for the 2021-22 and 2022-23 school years are available here on the website. The 2021-22 school year will start on August 23.

Secondary schools cannot reopen under California Department of Public Health guidelines until Orange County re-enters the red tier of COVID-19 restrictions. Currently, the county remains in the purple tier. The district is prepared and ready to reopen secondary schools as soon as legally possible. As a reminder, to get into red tier status, the Orange County adjusted daily case rate per 100,000 needs to be below 7, test positivity rate below 8 percent and a health equity quartile positivity rate below 8 percent. 

Student COVID-19 testing will be offered on Tuesday, February 23 as part of the district's efforts to reduce community spread of COVID-19. Information will be sent out to parents on how to register their child for testing prior to the testing date. 

All school sites will be closed from Monday, February 15 to Friday February 19 for Mid-Winter Break. District Offices will be closed from Monday, February 15 to Wednesday, February 17.

On Wednesday, October 14, the Laguna Beach Unified School District launched a COVID-19 dashboard to provide parents, guardians, and employees with up-to-date COVID-19 confirmed positive case counts among LBUSD students and staff on district campuses.  The dashboard was created to keep stakeholders informed with accurate and transparent information about COVID-19 positive cases in the District.  

In addition to updated information on the dashboard, principals or school staff will also communicate new cases directly to their communities.  The District will only communicate and provide data for confirmed positive COVID-19 cases.  LBUSD schools and staff will maintain confidentiality and protect student and staff privacy, following all FERPA protocols.

To access the dashboard, click here or visit lbusd.org/covid19.

LBUSD will continue to offer student meals at no cost to all students through the end of 2020 to ensure meal options for children continue to be available so children can access meals under all circumstances,

This is the information regarding the reopening of schools that was presented at the September 3, 2020, meeting of the LBUSD Board of Education.
