Congratulations to the Cabrillo 6th through 8th grade band students who put on an incredible performance to a packed house at IBL. All kinds of appreciation goes out to Mr. Gallegos who has turned our students into musicians that mesmerized the audience. Such a great night!!

We're incredibly happy to announce that the courtyard between wing A and B is officially open! It is BEAUTIFUL and we are finally able to flow more freely throughout the school. Unfortunately, the courtyard between wing B and C is still being worked on but is expected to be completed shortly.

On Monday, the district held a professional development day for staff. At first glance, professional development days may look like “days off” for teachers—but in reality, they’re vital learning days for educators. PD days give staff the opportunity to grow their skills, collaborate with colleagues, and stay current on best practices that directly benefit students.

Dear Pacifica School District Students, Staff, Families, and Community Members,

We are proud to join schools across San Mateo County and the nation in recognizing Ruby Bridges Walk to School Day Friday, November 14, 2025.  This special day honors Ruby Bridges, who, in 1960, became the first African American student to integrate an all-white elementary school in the South, an event that marked a pivotal moment in the Civil Rights Movement.

The Pacifica School District recognizes that a strong school library program is essential in building lifelong learning and a love of reading. Our libraries provide not only the resources students need to achieve their educational goals, but also welcoming, inclusive spaces that support their social and emotional well-being. Each of our five schools are guided by a dedicated Library Media Technician (LMT) who designs and organizes each of these environments with care and creativity.
