Due to the Gann Fire evacuation for Mountain Oaks San Andreas site and many of our families, we are postponing the Workshop Registration. This will ensure that everyone has the same chance for signing up for classes. We will do another all call to let families know the new date and time for the registration once things have calmed down.

Mountain Oaks remains outside of the fires margins at this time, and we are confident our emergency crews are highly capable of handling this situation. Please remain clear of the area and the San Andreas site for your safety and to allow emergency services to do their work. If you are affected by the fire, please do not hesitate to contact us, as we are dedicated to supporting our community.

We will keep you posted. Thank you for understanding and we hope everyone stays safe. Posted 8/4/26

The 26-27 Fall Workshop Schedule has been approved and is posted for families to review. We also have posted a separate Workshop Course Description document to give a brief description of the workshops. Workshop registration will go live on the Mountain Oaks website on Tuesday, August 4th at 8:00 AM and registration will close on Tuesday, August 11th at 5:00 PM. Some of the workshops fill up very fast - within minutes of the registration going live. Here are some helpful tips to make workshop registration as easy as possible.
1. Review the Workshop Schedule and Course Descriptions prior to registration and have list of what you want to sign up for. Workshops will be listed alphabetically on the registration form.
2. Be ready to sign up at 8 AM.
3. If you are on the Mountain Oaks website before 8 AM, you will need to refresh the page at 8 AM to have access to the registration form. This is the most common problem for families. If you do not refresh, you will not see the registration link.
4. To complete the Workshop Registration form all you have to do is enter your students' first and last name for each workshop that you want to attend.
5. Students must be up-to-date or have a waiver (medical or IEP) on file to attend any school group activities - which includes workshops.
6. Families will be emailed (per the email address listed on the registration form) to let you know which workshops your student got into or if they are on a wait list. We will also inform families if we do not have up-to-date immunizations so that they have time to turn in the immunization records for us to update our files.

Dear Mountain Oaks School Families,
We are writing to share that Mountain Oaks School Administrator Kathleen Lewis has informed us of her decision to resign from her position and will not be returning for the 2026–2027 school year. While we are saddened by her departure, we respect her decision and wish her all the best in her future endeavors.
On behalf of the Mountain Oaks School Board and the Calaveras County Office of Education, we would like to express our sincere gratitude to Kathleen for her many years of dedicated service. Throughout her time as a mentor teacher, assistant administrator, and administrator, she has positively impacted the lives of countless students and families. Her commitment to personalized learning, student success, and the growth of Mountain Oaks School has left a lasting legacy.
We recognize that leadership transitions can create uncertainty, and we want to assure families that our highest priority is maintaining the strong educational program, supportive school culture, and individualized services that Mountain Oaks students and families value.
The position of Administrator will be posted immediately and remain open for two weeks. Following the application period, a thorough interview process will be conducted to identify a highly qualified leader who reflects the mission and values of Mountain Oaks School. Our goal is to select an individual who will continue to build upon the school's strengths and support the success of every student. If additional time is needed to identify the right candidate, we will continue the search until we find the best possible fit for our school community.
In the meantime, the Calaveras County Office of Education will provide administrative support and oversight to ensure a smooth and seamless transition. Families can be confident that school operations, student services, and educational programming will continue without interruption as we prepare for the upcoming school year.
Mountain Oaks School has always been defined by the strength of its students, families, teachers, and staff. We are committed to supporting our school community throughout this transition and will keep you informed as the search process progresses.
Thank you for your continued partnership and support of Mountain Oaks School.
Sincerely,
David Rose, Mountain Oaks School Board President
Jared Hungerford, Calaveras County Superintendent of Schools

Dear Mountain Oaks Community Members,

We have recently installed vape sensors in the All Gender Restrooms and the Student Restrooms in the gym hallway. These sensors will alert staff when anyone is smoking or vaping in these restrooms. Anyone who is seen leaving the restrooms after the vape alert (cameras are in the hallways) can face investigation and potentially discipline.

Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns regarding the vape sensors.

Thank you, Kathleen Lewis, Administrator
